Iberia

by Isaac Albeniz

Composed 1905–1909
Published 1906
Works 12

Albéniz's masterpiece: twelve pieces in four books (1905–1909), the summation of his creative life. The most demanding piano music in the Spanish repertoire — and among the most complex ever written. Each piece evokes a specific place or festival with extraordinary harmonic sophistication, polyrhythmic density, and orchestral richness. Debussy called it music that 'no pianist can play perfectly.'
