Details

Tales from Spain is a symphonic suite consisting of four emblematic episodes from Spanish cultural imagery, exploring the historical and mythical roots of these stories that have endured through the centuries.

1. Camino de Santiago
The work begins with a solemn and melodic movement, inspired by the mystique of the Camino de Santiago. The section develops a crescendo theme full of hope and spirituality, representing the triumphal arrival at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.
2. Suspiros de Boabdil
In this movement, the music is filled with melancholy and arabesques that recall the fall of Granada in 1492 and the farewell of the last Nasrid king, Boabdil, as he leaves his kingdom.
3. La Dama de Elche
A mysterious and enigmatic movement that pays homage to the famous Iberian sculpture. The music stands out for its sonorous passages full of emotion, mystery and divinity.
4. Sant Jordi y el Dragón
It tells the epic and vibrant tale of the legend of Saint George, the holy knight who defeated the dragon to save the princess and her people. At the place where the dragon fell, a rosebush of red flowers sprouted, symbolising life and sacrifice. It opens with a menacing introduction depicting the dragon, with dark chords and thunderous percussion. As the hero’s theme emerges, the music takes on a martial and victorious character, culminating in a brilliant and triumphant finale that celebrates bravery and the triumph of good over evil.

Tales from Spain is a musical journey combining tradition and modernity, designed to honour Spain’s rich cultural and historical legacy.
