Claude Debussy was concerned with all the senses in his colourful impression of Spain – Iberia. Manuel de Falla’s The Three-Cornered Hat has a vivid Spanish sound, while Igor Stravinsky’s puppet music for Petrushka exceeded all musical imaginings before that. Liz Nolan presents a showcase of unabridged musical masterworks, featuring live recordings of Irish and international performers, plus selections from the latest CD releases.
