🇦🇷Alberto Ginastera ： Criollo Dance Suite Calmo e Poetico Op.15-4

The fourth piece from Alberto Ginastera’s Criollo Dance Suite. The character indicated by its title, “Calm and Poetic,” directs the listener’s attention away from emphasizing dance rhythms and toward the shaping of the melody and the changing qualities of the sound. As a contrasting facet of the suite, the piece is compelling for the tension hidden within its tranquil flow and for the colors created by overlapping tones. In performance, avoid rushing the tempo, maintain the breathing of each phrase, and balance the voices carefully so that the inner parts do not disappear. Expressing dynamic changes not only through volume but also through differences in tone and resonance brings out its quiet poetic quality.
