r. Iznaola's impresive catalogue of original works includes his orchestral ('In the Eyes, a Silver Dagger'; Tiempo Muerto - Concerto for Guitar and Orchestra), chamber (Danzas de la Abuela; Triptico Criollo; Gran Guaguanco; Diferencias para el Conde Claros Criollo), vocal (Corinna's Songbook; Vocalise) and solo works (Sonata Daedalus; Blood Wedding Suite; Three Little Tales; Variations on a Theme by Lauro; Concert Etudes; Circus Vignettes; Monologo I and II, etc.) Apart from his original compositions, Mr. Iznaola's path-breaking transcriptions and arrangements have been celebrated for their brilliance, refinement and musicality. Among them, Ravel's Alborada del Gracioso, Chopin's Grand valse brillante, op. 18, or de Falla's Ritual Fire Dance, have brought particularly high acclaim.

"...his extraordinary Concert Etudes:"
imagine an amalgam"
of Regondi and Villa-Lobos"
written in the spirit of Liszt."
