Asturias (Leyenda) Sample: MIDI Format

Tuning: EADGBE Key: E Minor

Comments: At last here is the transcription for Asturias (Leyenda) by Isaac Albeniz. Albeniz never actually composed music for the guitar, his pieces were originally for piano, but he clearly had the guitar in mind when composing them. This is a part of the Suite Española, inspired by various regions and cities in Spain. Subtitled "Leyenda (Legend)" this piece is the musical telling of a mountain tale, that seems to grow more exaggerated with the building of each phrase.

Difficulty:

Sevilla

Tuning: DGDGBE Key:???

Comments: Another piece from the "Suite Española". The city of Sevilla is the heart of a fundamental flamenco dance, the "sevillanas". The lively, rhytmical opening and conclusion of this piece suggest a flamenco party, but the central section interrupts with the mournful cry of a flamenco singer.
