about

The Spanish Dances have sentimental beginnings. Starting in my teenage years, my mother and I would often play Brahms' "Hungarian Dances", mostly for our own enjoyment, but later in more formal settings. Having enjoyed this, I wanted to write something of my own in the four-hands genre specifically for my mother and me to perform. Like the Brahms pieces that we loved, I wanted to write something that was melodic, joyful, and, I hoped, as much fun to listen to as to play. The result was the Seven Spanish Dances for Piano Four Hands. They are meant to be enjoyed in the spirit with which they were written, delighting in melody and rhythm and the joy of performance.
