PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The twelve impressions of Spain that comprise Iberia earned Albéniz great acclaim; one of the last works completed in his , it is a masterpiece of grand vision and extraordinary imagination. In Iberia, Albéniz marries various aspects of the Spanish folk idiom with a far more adventurous use of the piano, exploiting the vast dynamic and tonal range of the instrument, using rich harmonies and the full scope of timbres that the piano has to offer.
