La Puerta del Vino DEBUSSY ARR ERIC CREES
VAT Included
The Spanish composer, Manuel de Falla (1876-1946) sent his friend Debussy a postcard of the massive 'La Puerta del Vino' or 'The Wine Gate', which protected the Alhambra in Granada and was a meeting place for gipsies. Although Debussy had only briefly visited northern Spain, he had come across Spanish folk music from the south at the Universal Exposition in 1900, remarking, 'so much imagination mingles with so much rhythm'. This sparked the most violent piece in his two books of piano 'Préludes', full of markedly flamenco-influenced contrasts between passionate outbursts, sensuous lyricism and dissonant tone clusters.
This arrangement was specially made for the album 'Preludes, Rags and Cakewalks' (MPR 005), performed by The Symphonic Brass of London conducted by Eric Crees.
