(Isaac Albeniz)
This piece by Isaac Albeniz was written for piano in 5 movements:
(i) Preludio
(ii) Oriental
(iii) Bajo la Palmera
(iv) Cordoba
(v) Seguidillas
When the Suite Espanola was published after his death in 1918 more pieces were added to it and the “Preludio” and “Seguidillas” from this work became “Asturias” and “Castilla” for the revised version.
