Federico Mompou (1893-1987)
Music for Piano

‘I always try to make good music. My only desire is to write works in which nothing is missing and nothing is superfluous. I regard as most important in my compositional activity to limit myself to what is essential and avoid getting lost in secondary, unimportant ideas. Some colleagues cannot understand my positioning away from large forms and the traditional concept of music; to me, there is only my form and my concept.’
