Alon Sariel - Iberian Fantasy
Marjan Hellraeth
The „Iberian Fantasy“ program leads us to Spain's dazzling composers elite of the 19th and 20th century.
Names like Albéniz, Granados, de Falla and Tárrega are counted among those masters who gave Spain an independent and acclaimed voice in music history. At a time of Europe's national movements, they bestowed the world with fascinating traditional melodies, vivacious rhythms, folk song elements and the musical depiction of the unique Spanish landscape! Isaac Albéniz, „father“ of a distinctive Spanish school that developed from the middle of the19th century on, became the first master in blending the dominating French style with Spanish folk rhythms and melodies.
Alon Sariel masters his instrument from a range of sweet and silvery sounds to lively and virtuosic outbreaks in order to bring the Spanish soul to life!
