#3 from 50 Catalan folksongs (Volume I) for piano solo (2005) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This piece - literally 'Dances from the cave' - comes from a set of around 50 piano transcriptions of Catalan folksongs by the German composer Johannes Rövenstrunck (1949- ), and is among the results of a detailed study of Catalan folk music undertaken by the composer in early 2005. Most of the accompaniments of the transcriptions consist of ostinato figures, with the intention of not obscuring the melodies. For more information on the composer, see tinyurl.com/yjtmfvb3 You can see the scores of these and the other arrangements at: http://www.copy-us.com/?aktion=list&w=search_reset&s_k=50 (although as of August 2021 the site was under maintenance and the scores were unavailable). My thumbnail shows a detail from a 2008 photo of a stone cave in the Parc de Pedra Tosca, Les Preses, Girona (source: tinyurl.com/yfrz7e5c ). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pianogems
