Cristóbal Halffter’s complex and ever-audacious piano music best represents his quest for novelty and expression and his keen instinct for mixing Modernism and national identity. Brilliantly served on this CD by Alberto Rosado and Juan Carlos Garvayo, this CD is one to cherish and study for now on: alongside the astonishing, powerful performances by Rosado and Garvayo, Halffter’s music presents a virtuosistic display of web-like structures and dazzling condensations of sound. This is, for sure, a perfectly-balanced CD meant to shine in Hallfter’s discography.
