About this piece
This piece is from a set of 2 Songs Without Words by Cuban composer Ignacio Cervantes. These pieces are connected by thematic material and can be played together.
The first piece in this set has a very solemn, dramatic tone with intricate accompaniment parts that create expressive dissonances and give way to beautiful harmonic progressions.
