Musician's or Publisher's Notes

Sarasate wrote pieces of popular origin in which he used traditional Spanish themes to display the accomplishments of the player: technical command, expressiveness, and refinement of tone – the hallmarks of Sarasate's own performing style, and obviously he wrote these pieces to showcase his own playing. His works challenge both player and instrument and evoke the atmosphere, the dash, flair and melodic richness of his homeland's characteristic music.       Ania Filochowska
