🇪🇸Isaac Albéniz ： Piano Sonata No.5 in B-Dur Op.82

Albéniz’s Piano Sonata No. 5 follows the framework of the classical sonata while contrasting appealing melodies with rhythmically vibrant passages. Its several movements, each with a distinct character, shape the work through the alternation of forceful thematic statements, singing passages, and light, agile movement. Performers should clearly differentiate the tempo and character of each movement, while keeping the sonority full and maintaining clarity in the inner voices. Avoid rushing the smaller rhythmic figures, and let each phrase move naturally toward its climax to convey the work’s overall structure and forward momentum.
