The Spanish pianist and composer, Isaac Albéniz, was a child prodigy and gave his first piano recital when he was only four years old.

He was a founder of contemporary Spanish music and created a distinctive style by using national rhythms and harmonies.

Although he wrote several operas, including a King Arthur to English words, songs and orchestral works, he is probably best known for his piano music
