(Isaac Albeniz)
This piece of music written by Isaac Albeniz is the third and final work from Book 2 of the collection of Spanish music and dances, Iberia. Triana is the gypsy quarter in the Spanish city of Seville with flamenco traditions, and the music is a mixture of a Pasodoble and a Sevillanas, with taconeo (heelwork) and castanets adding to the rhythm. A secondary theme using variations is used before the original music is reinstated and also concludes the piece.
