A suite of extraordinary virtuosity and imagination depicting popular scenes and landscapes of his native Spain, it was the composer's final work for piano. He completed it in 1908, and by the Spring of 1909, he had died of chronic kidney disease. This performance will mark the 100th anniversary of his passing. It will also pay homage to the extraordinary Spanish pianist Alicia de Larrocha, who recorded the work with unsurpassable mastery, and whose last masterclass in the U.S. took place in Auer Hall in the summer of 2005. De Larrocha passed away on September 25 this year.
