Composer: Isaac Albéniz
Artist: Sebastian Stanley (piano)
This album contains the Piano Sonata Nos. 3, 4, 5 and Suite Ancienne Nos. 1, 2 by Albéniz, presented by Piano Classics, a label of Brilliant Classics.
Isaac Albéniz’ most famous work is undoubtedly his suite Iberia, a landmark of Spanish culture and the perfect example of “Españolismo”, the fusing of folkloristic elements in romantic music. Albéniz wrote seven piano sonatas during the 1880s, but only Nos. 3, 4, and 5 survive as complete works. As with so much of his output they are now better known in the form of guitar transcriptions - at least for Nos. 3 and 5 - but the piano originals show the same fantastical imagination and romantic temperament as his masterpiece Iberia, while conforming to a more conventionally Classical form. Their craftsmanship in harmony, scoring, and voice-leading are beyond reproach, but it is the lyric sweep and often playful touches of harmony that secure their place on the fringes of the repertoire.
As a pianist, Albéniz was a noted interpreter of 18th-century music - not only Bach and Scarlatti but also Handel, Couperin and Rameau - at a time when such music was often disparaged as dryly academic or old- fashioned. The Suites anciennes are an early example of musical neoclassicism, comprising suites of gavottes, minuets, sarabandes and chaconnes in his own tribute to the Baroque era. But then the minuets, rondos and well-worked counterpoint to be enjoyed in the three sonatas also belong to an earlier era. The Fourth is a particular highlight, establishing Albéniz as the leading Spanish composer of keyboard sonatas since Antonio Soler, but the others are every bit its equal in raftsmanship and elegance.
Sebastian Stanley is a British pianist who has specialised in the piano music of Spain, making well-received recordings of the Danzas Espanolas and Goyescas by Granados. This is his debut album on Brilliant Classics, enhanced by booklet notes by the noted authority on Spanish piano music, Walter A. Clark.

Albeniz, Granados, deFalla, Turina,... Spain has given us many wonders.
Isaac Albeniz was well known in Spanish speaking countries during the XXth century. This CD of piano sonatas and the delightful Suites Anciennes shows an accomplished composer with respect for older composers, well versed in piano composition, a classical romantic. An excellent rendering by the pianist Sebastian Stanley. Thanks Brilliant Classics for uploading.
The comfort of these piano sonatas is irreplaceable , and universal
Un maestro Isaac Manuel Francisco Albéniz y Pascual!!!!
These beautiful pieces reveal a composer who is imaginative, romantic, and very sophisticated with melodic line and harmonic progression. It is a feast for the ears, heart, and soul. The pianist here picks up on this and brings it all to life in a masterful performance that is well recorded. Thank you so much for posting this.
Lovely comment. Well-said
Thank you , Briliant Classics for this beautiful music !
Sebastian Stanley gives a brilliant and beautiful performance of these Albéniz works. Thank you so much for posting.
REALLY FINE MUSIC. ! I WONDER WHY IT IS NOT EASY TO ENJOY SPANISH COMPOSERS MUSIC, WHEN IST LEVEL IS SO HIGH AND PLEASANT ¡
아름다운 피아노 연주곡 잘 들었습니다~감사합니다~🎵🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤수고 많으셨습니다~☕
Un doux piano du grand compositeur Albeniz ♡.Merci
Wunderschöne und lyrische Interpretation dieser drei kompakten doch perfekt komponierten Klaviersonaten und zwei ebenso kompakten doch fein komponierten Suiten in verschiedenen Tempi mit klar artikuliertem doch etwas anmutigem Anschlag und perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich intelligenter und genialer Pianist!
Wonderful classical music channel. Thank you 🥰🙏
So relaxing! The peace I need to have strenght in this tough day. And a complete new composer for me... thank you very much!
I love all his work, magnificent!! It's incredible how this was created over a 100 years ago
Delightfully surprised by these very melodious works. As you have mentioned, probably I heard one of the sonatas in a guitar transcription but the original must always please more. Very competent and agreeable performance by Mr Sebastian Stanley , many thanks
Absolutely beautiful and satisfying playing. Also, the piano is gorgeous and well recorded.
Wonderful to see all the positive comments in various languages -- though I must oil my very rusty russian! - and, as we used to say in Yorkshire, the music is reet grand! - especially the gorgeous fifth sonata.
So beautifully arranged..♡
Une surprenante et magnifique découverte d'oeuvres pianistiques de ce grand compositeur. Musique apaisante voire relaxante.
J'aime beaucoup l'affiche Art-déco ! Merci pour cette présentation !
Merci a vous 🌈
... magnifique interprétation du maitre Albéniz. I hope vinyl version exist from this recording
Unfortunately there isn't a vinyl version, only a cd version and of course digital streaming and download
GREAT !!!
고마워요 잘듣고 있어요:)
Thank you
Felicitaciones! A Brilliant Classics por su excelente grabación. Estas bellas sonatas de Albéniz les falta más difusión. Tienen una estructura cien porciento muy melodiosa en cada uno de los movimientos de las sonatas. Uno está acostumbrado a la estructura clásica de los otros compositores. Sobresaliendo las de Chopin y otros compositores románticos. Sin embargo, las de Albéniz son meramente hermosos. Nunca visto en la forma sonata tradicional. Reciba saludos desde México. Gracias por compartir. BENDICIONES!!!
정말 낭만적이고 섬세한 연주다. 들을수록 좋다
Obrigado!
Molto delicato complimenti grazie Maestro
감사합니다.

When I saw the title it remembered me the time I only listened to Albeniz' pieces. Such a fine composer. By the way, sonatas 1 and 2 are really lost?
Flawless 👼
The third movement of the the first one is a lot harder than it sounds. I've practiced it for a long time.
Спасибо. Украина
👏👌

Got any info on the cover art?

Continuing a living tradition of classical values is hardly "neo-classicism," a false term that only applied in any case to music after 1920 or so. It was created as an alternative to "modernism" and has a derogatory connotation.
