When the Catalan composer Albeniz wrote his six album leaves Espana at the age of 30, he was in London and his piano recitals were causing a sensation. At these concerts he often performed his own compositions which were infused with the flair of his home country. Albeniz also gave the first performance of the piano cycle Espana in London, taking his audience on a journey through the Spanish countryside: exotic dance rhythms (Zortzico) and melodic folk tunes (Serenata) are preceded by the famous Tango, made known through many arrangements.
