Topic: Debussy - La soirée dans Grenade

Claude Debussy's "La soirée dans Grenade," composed in 1903 as part of his "Estampes," is themed around the ancient Andalusian city of Granada. Interestingly, Debussy himself never visited Spain in his lifetime.

AAh! The first section -habanera rhythm…”An evening in Granada” 
I can like this, though a bit of different soundworld than in your previous pieces. Imagination and effect! This is such a pretty piece.
Thank you HAL. Now I every day looking for something new from you   

Best wishes,

Stig

Thank you, Stig!

This subject is exotic and fascinating to me as well. Debussy's orchestral suite "Ibéria" is also sensual. I recommend it.
