Andrés Gaos: Symphony no. 1, piano reduction

Andrés Gaos

Andrés Gaos was a Galician composer who stood out for having succeeded in spreading Galician music during the early 20^th century throughout Latin America, especially Argentina, the country where he spent most of his life.

His first symphony is one of his most outstanding works, and it is a clear example of the French post-romantic style, with slight nationalist nuances. This edition published by Dos Acordes constitutes a reduction of that work made by the composer himself. It is a work of great pianistic and musicological interest and, moreover, it is an excellent guide to orchestral conducting.

This volume belongs to the series Agra Vella, within the collection Ars Gallaeciae Musicae that Dos Acordes co-publishes with the Galician Agency for Cultural Industries (AGADIC) of the Xunta de Galicia.
