Product description

Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Fernando Lopes-Graça's "Lopes-Graça: Piano Works," a remarkable collection of compositions that showcases the depth and breadth of this influential Portuguese composer's piano repertoire. Released on May 6, 2014, under the CapriccioNR label, this album is a testament to Lopes-Graça's mastery of the choral genre, offering a rich tapestry of musical expression that spans a diverse range of emotions and styles.

The album opens with the enchanting "9 Danças breves," a series of nine short dances that exude a playful and lively spirit, each piece distinct yet harmoniously interconnected. Following this, the "Variações sobre um tema popular português, Op. 1" presents a beautiful exploration of traditional Portuguese themes, reimagined through Lopes-Graça's unique compositional lens.

The centerpiece of the album is the "Piano Sonata No. 2, Op. 26," a monumental work that demonstrates Lopes-Graça's prowess in classical sonata form. The three-movement sonata is a journey through contrasting moods and textures, from the energetic and assertive first movement to the introspective and lyrical second movement, culminating in a vibrant and dynamic finale.

The final and most extensive work on the album is "Ao fio dos anos e das horas," a sprawling suite of sixteen movements that encapsulates the essence of Lopes-Graça's musical language. Each movement is a distinct character study, ranging from the serene and contemplative to the fiery and impassioned, offering a comprehensive exploration of the human experience.

With a total runtime of 1 hour and 19 minutes, "Lopes-Graça: Piano Works" is a profound and engaging collection that invites listeners to delve into the rich musical heritage of Fernando Lopes-Graça. Whether you are a seasoned enthusiast of classical music or a newcomer to the genre, this album promises a rewarding and enriching listening experience.

About Fernando Lopes-Graça

Fernando Lopes-Graça, born in Tomar, Portugal, in 1906, was a towering figure in 20th-century Portuguese music, renowned for his work as a composer, conductor, and musicologist. His compositions, deeply rooted in Portuguese folk traditions, earned him comparisons to Béla Bartók for their innovative use of native songs and rhythms. Lopes-Graça's political convictions, as a member of the Portuguese Communist Party, often found expression in his music, which served as a powerful critique of the oppressive Estado Novo regime. His seminal work, the "Dicionário de Música," stands as a testament to his scholarly pursuits and his enduring impact on Portuguese musical culture. With a discography that includes iconic works like "Canções Heróicas," Lopes-Graça's music continues to captivate audiences with its rich, evocative soundscapes and profound emotional depth. His legacy endures, inspiring new generations of musicians and music lovers alike.
