🇪🇸Enrique Granados ： La Sirena DLR VII:2

Granados’s La Sirena is a work that invites the listener to appreciate the singing quality of its melodies and the piano’s distinctive range of color. Keeping the right-hand melody smooth while carefully balancing the accompaniment and inner voices creates a sense of transparency in the layers of sound. In passages that suggest shifts of atmosphere, it is important not to rush the tempo, but to shape the direction and breathing of each phrase with care. The pedal should support the resonance without allowing the sound to become blurred, while the changes in dynamics are best kept understated. Guided by the dreamlike impression suggested by its title, performers can bring out its delicate nuances.
