Discusses parallels between Granados's approach to piano
technique and that of Ludwig Deppe and Tobias Matthay, two
pioneers in the reshaping of pianistic principles that took
place at the turn of the century. Despite his relative isolation
in Barcelona, Granados pursued strikingly modern ideas in piano
playing, including principles of weight and relaxation,
avoidance of finger-lifting, and preoccupation with fine
gradations of tone. Primary sources include the composer's
diary, treatise on pedaling, and the detailed memoirs of one of
his students. Hess, Carol A. "Enrique Granados and Modern Piano
