Mompou: Complete Piano Works - CD

ENGLISH

<br><br>The famous and nearly legendary recording of the piano works of Federico Mompou, played by the composer himself.<br /> <br /> Federico Mompou stands as a composer in the tradition of the national Spanish School of Granados, Albeniz and Falla, though his style is highly individual, more imaginative, contemplative, more spiritual and "simple" in a positive sense. One might call him the "Spanish Satie" but then without the excentrities and irony of the French composer.<br /> <br /> Mompou the pianist is a master in his own works, they sound as created on the spot, with great freedom and quasi improvisatory.<br /> <br /> Other information:<br /> - A definitive performance of works which are getting increasingly well-known: a must!<br /> - Excellent linernotes.
