A project of my heart became reality:
Concert Castanets & Piano, the audio recordings of the albums Concert Castanets I to III are available in the shop KonzertKastagnetten on this website in various formats and on my new Bandcamp account – amparodetriana.bandcamp.com.
Amparo de Triana – Concert Castanets
Yoshimi Ogawa – piano
3 albums with 24 solos and 3 castanet duos
Concert Castanets I:
Concert castanets for the 6 little preludes by J. S. Bach, BWV 933 to 938 and a castanet duet.
Concert Castanets II:
Concert castanets for 10 short works by Burgmüller, L. Mozart, Purcell, Lully, J. S. Bach, Petzold, Beethoven and Händel plus a castanet duet.
.
Concert Castanets III:
Concert castanets for 9 ‘Lyrical Pieces’ by Edvard Grieg with virtuoso character, 8 solos and a piece for two voices.
The sheet music for the castanet parts is available in the first edition as a print under the title ‘Konzertkastagnetten I–III’ and in the second edition as e-books under the title ‘Concert Castanets I–III’.
The compositions are suitable for various levels, from beginners with good prior knowledge to virtuoso castanet players. In addition to the recordings of concert castanets & piano, there are also recordings of piano solo, i.e. the accompanying part for castanet players who wish to play the compositions. In addition, the two-part pieces are available as piano plus 1st part castanets and piano plus 2nd part castanets.
My heartfelt thanks go above all to Angelika Eckart, who developed the project, pushed it and made it possible, to Yoshimi Ogawa and Tom Auffarth, who immediately got started with me enthusiastically. A really exciting time.
