Enrique Granados was among those who died when the ship on which he was travelling was torpedoed during the First World War. As a tribute to the Spanish composer, Sir Henry Wood orchestrated five of Granados's 'Danzas Espanolas' for Solo Piano and played them in the Proms in 1917. Here is 'Andaluza,' one of the best-known numbers in the set, in Wood's colourful arrangement. It is played by the London Philharmonic under Nicholas Braithwaite and comes from an excellent 'Lyrita' CD devoted to a variety of Wood's orchestrations (SRCD.216).
