Joaqun Nin

Granadina & Saeta

Arranged for Guitar Quartet
by
Andrew Forrest

These two pieces are taken from Twenty Spanish Folk Songs by Joaqun Nin.
They were originally written for soprano and piano and cover all regions of Spain;
the Granadina and the Saeta both being from Andalucia. Granadinas exist as a
flamenco form alternating strict tempo dance sections with freer lyrical passages.
Whilst Nins Granadina is an original composition, it does recognise the feel of
its Spanish forerunner. The Saeta is of very different character being a processional
music form that is used on religious occasions.

In the event of a public performance, please include

the arranger's name on the programme
