Cádiz is a piano piece by Isaac Albéniz. It first appeared as Célèbre Sérénade Espagnole, Op. 181, and later became part of the Suite española, Op. 47, when its publishers enlarged that suite. The original Suite española, mostly written in 1886 and grouped in 1887 in honour of the Queen of Spain, had four pieces: Granada, Cataluña, Sevilla and Cuba. Cádiz, Asturias, Aragón and Castilla were added from other publications. Each title names a Spanish region and the subtitle a musical form, here Canción, but Cádiz is geographically loose: it does not draw on the music of Cádiz itself, though it is written in the manner of Spanish folk song. Miguel Llobet's transcription made it a staple of the classical guitar, and it is now heard on guitar more often than on piano. The chart is 1,996 notes over 3:38, with the hands close to even. It averages 9.1 notes per second and peaks at 10.7 between 1:48 and 2:13, so the pressure is steady rather than gathered in one place. One note at the very top falls outside a 61-key keyboard.
Albéniz's Cádiz, first published as Célèbre Sérénade Espagnole, Op. 181.
It averages 9.1 notes per second against a peak of 10.7, so the busiest bar is barely harder than the rest and there is nowhere to recover. The right hand plays 54% of the 1,996 notes and the left 46%. The notes run C sharp2 to C sharp7, 5 octaves, which is past what a 61-key board reaches at one end or the other. Klaviero rates it tier 5 of 5.
