Description
Plate No. 1 from the series Los Caprichos (The Caprices). This provides a portrait of the painter. Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s sequence thus begins with Preamble, founded on a musical motto on Goya’s name, presenting a picture of a debonair, self-assured personality. Then comes a three part Fugue (Allegretto moderato) with a central section somewhat in the style of a March. The ending, a repetition of Goya’s name, this time in fortissimo octaves, is marked ‘sustained and pompous’.
