¡Ole Señora!

[poupee58]

The piece scarlatti never wrote.

[shubus]

Such a tremendous performance. Before Alicia, the world knew little of Spanish music, now we have performances such as this to savor forever even though she is no longer with us.

[gouloum2222]

hmmm... finally i don't find her hands that small...

[mantequillavoladora]

La mejor pianista española!!!!!! Que arte que tiene, que pone los vellos de punta!

[saturne46]

Alicia de Larrocha est insurpassée dans cette oeuvre plaisante. Quel style, quel panache aussi. L'espagne telle qu'on la rêve en France. Elle restera dans nos coeurs. Merci Madame

[nico22059]

What an amazing pianist! She´ll be surely missed around here...

[tudeiz]

THE Great Dame of piano!!

We will miss you, Alicia de Larrocha. Your beauty captivated us and your music set our hearts free. Que Dios le bendiga.

[salviatim]

its a really good piece

awesome interpretation

[maxiepuss]

With absolutely dazzling fingerwork, fiery perpetual motion and rhythmic swagger, de Larrocha owns this piece, easily, period.

[MikeInBeantown]

An refreshing, insightful and intelligent comment. I think de Larrocha owns (your word) many of the Spanish keyboard pieces. Thanks.

[perlimpli]

Larrocha Grande!

Just BURSTING with life!!!

[WolvieShedevil]

alicia is completely amazing, I love this piece!

[vocalpianist]

this piece is brilliant! I love it! Oh, de Larrocha is sparkling in this performance. What an incredible pianist.

[yamahabro]

I keep coming back to this video. The composition reminds me of Scarlatti, one of my favorite keyboard composers. Plus, the performance is stellar - sparkling in its clarity, infinitely expressive in its feeling, and brilliantly executed by de Larrocha. I can tell Spain flows through her veins!

[jannokas85]

Yes! It does sound like Scarlatti! Afterall, Scarlatti did compose his "555" in Spain! :)

[danilamper]

sabeis si hay algun video de la danza de la gitana de halffter?

UN SALUDO

[mpantel88]

what an artist!!!

[mellocello5]

OMGosh! this is incredible! I'm so leaning this piece!

[TACHTIN]

excellent!!

[aldebussy]

OMG! SO BEAUTIFUL!

[Noshirm]

No one can compare with de Larrocha in the playing of such music. Horowitz is reputed to have told her to play on, because there was much music in those small hands! I was so privileged to have heard her live in La Jolla in 1988. She played Turina's Sanlucar de Barrameda with incredible flair. Her Scarlatti, Mompou, Albeniz, Granados, and de Falla are magnificent, too.

This is beauty and truth in art.

[santibanqui]

Gracias Alicia!!!!

[Linhdanvo]

This is so great! Thank you for your posting!

[DoctorGradus]

what a marvellous sound indeed....i couldn't help noticing that this piece is from the same recital as the ritual fire dance,and i wonder where you found it and if you have any other pieces from that set..

[guboub]

Thank you so much for posting Alicia! Do you have more videos from her? You can see how much the energy flows freely to the tip of her finger, effortlessly. She is so inspiring

[bontchin]

Love the music and Alicia is a superb pianist

[kpunkt]

Very cool playing by Alicia de Larrocha! The piece is from a student of Manuel de Falla - but it sounds like Scarlatti.
