Aparición for Guitar by Enrique Granados

Composer Enrique Granados, along with Isaac Albéniz, brought modern Spanish music into the home of the avid music lover. Most of Granados' works are for piano solo, and through them he created a unique style of writing for the [then] modern school of Spanish keyboard music. Many of his works have been successfully arranged for guitar and are among the all time audience favorites in the instrument's literature.

Aparición was composed for the “Cateura” pedal piano, an instrument invented around Barcelona at the beginning of the twentieth Century. No known examples of the “Cateura” are known to have survived; however, through indications of the scores in the works Granados wrote for it, the pedals must have provided special coloristic tonal effects.

This arrangement for solo guitar by Gregg Nestor also uses fingerings that help emphasize the ringing sonorities, adding to the charm and beauty of this jewel.
