{"pk":57018,"title":"New Approaches to Enrique Granados’ Pedagogical Methods and Pianistic Tradition: A Case Study of Valses poéticos op.43","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This paper presents the outcomes of a three-year doctoral investigation, in which the author examines stylistic and aesthetic trends in the performances of Granados, with the aim of producing a detailed and painstaking examination of the pianistic tradition inherited by the Spanish composer. The differing and equally convincing pianistic styles of Granados’ followers call into question the validity of only one possible “authoritative” interpretation when approaching this particular performance tradition. The thorough analysis of \nValses poéticos \nop.43 written by Granados allowed a closer look at performance practices of Granados and the musical tastes of his time. This early work is especially relevant due to the significant number of its original sources.  This investigation has unearthed a treasure trove of new and detailed information about this wonderful pianistic legacy left by Granados, and the Catalan School of Piano Players. Furthermore, it raises questions about current performance practices and the stylistic validity that pianists might be able to give in their performances of Granados’ works through a combined study of his manuscripts, pedagogical methods, recordings and performance tradition.","language":"en","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0","short_name":"CC BY 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
