"Cádiz" from Suite española no.1, T. 61 (Op.20) Originally published in 1890 as “Serenata española” it was later added to the eight movement suite by a publisher in 1911 and is #4 in that suite. The key is D Major and accommodates the counterpoint effectively without the confusing octave placements common in A Major arrangements. A portion of the middle section is arranged lower than many arrangements and has voicing exact to common flamenco styles.

The renowned Spanish musicologist Jacinto Torres has published a thematic catalog of Albéniz’s music that offers the only reliable organization of his compositions. Thus, T. numbers are now the principal means of establishing the sequence in which his works came into being. Opus numbers appear here only in brackets. (Walter A. Clark)
