From "7 Popular Spanish Songs" by Manuel de Falla - performed by Thomas Rüedi, euphonium
1. El paño moruno
Mournful; plaintive. De Falla later uses its bass line in The Three‑Cornered Hat.
2. Nana
Lullaby, gentle, lull‑like. Falla said he remembered hearing it from his mother.
3. Polo
Flamenco‑inspired, with more emotional intensity; includes guitar‑like effects, and also hand‑clap‑like accents.
7 Variations on "Männer welche Liebe Fühlen" by L. Van Beethoven. Thomas Rüedi - euphonium
The piece consists of a theme (Mozart’s melody) followed by seven variations, each changing the character, rhythm, texture, or emotional tone of the original.
Beethoven transforms the simple, lyrical melody into:
Playful, lyrical, dramatic, and even virtuosic moments.
A dialogue between cello and piano, echoing the duet nature of the original aria.
While based on Mozart’s theme, it clearly shows Beethoven’s early creative voice—playful, clever, and expressive.
