IGNACIO CERVANTES: PIANO DANCER
by Glenn Jenks
The music of Cuban composer Ignacio Cervantes (1847-1905) is almost entirely unknown in this country today. Despite the fact that he was published in both London and New York, his work has slipped beneath the radar of the academic community and scarcely ever gets programmed on the concert stage. The issue here is not an aesthetic one. Even a cursory examination of Cervantes' piano music reveals a composer comfortable in his craft, with a strong sense of musical propriety and an enviable melodic gift. Cuban musicologists hit their highest notes singing his praises, his genius eclipsed only by Ernesto Lecuona in the 20th century. Cervantes studied with the famous Cuban pianist Nicolas Espadero when he was a young boy. Espadero considered him his prize pupil, and when Louis Moreau Gottschalk visited Cuba the proud teacher introduced the two. Gottschalk took him on as a student, and later arranged for the young Cervantes to study with Antoine Francois Marmontel and Charles Alkan at the Paris Conservatoire. In Paris, Cervantes enjoyed much success, and in 1866 won first prize in a piano competition adjudicated by Daniel Auber and Charles Gounod, among others, for his performance of Heinrich Herz' Fifth Piano Concerto.

Translations by Ana Cervantes, Irizelma Robles Álvarez, Roberto Rhett and Adriana Morales "… Cervantes is not about purism. She is about passion, and that's what this recording delivers." - Paul Somers, Classical New Jersey Cervantes reveals that she can hold her own against any interpreter of Bach on the piano , [combining] clarity of line with roundness of phrasing … her sense of timing lends excitement to the music. The Cuban Dances … incorporate the subtle but vivid elasticity … that gives authentic Spanish music its tension.

Louis Moreau Gottschalk was an American composer and pianist. He is known to have composed two operas, though all that survives is a fragment of the second, Charles X . For this work Gottschalk used part of the libretto to I Capuleti e i Montecchi , originally set by Bellini. A frequent visitor to Cuba, Gottschalk conducted at least part of the opera there in 1860.

In Canada in the 19th.century most opera was performed by travelling companies, either from the United States or from Europe. Very little original opera was written, with most performances being European works. One noteworthy performance was of Boieldieu's La Dame Blanche The Widow , written for New Orleans, saw a revival in 1976, in Hamilton, Ontario, Even Canada's own Emma Albani, the first Canadian star in the world of opera, was rarely heard in Canada. She brought her company to Montreal's Academy of Music in 1890 and again in 1892.

She sang at La Scala and Turin and toured Europe, where she was known as the "Mexican nightingale".

The Contradanza and Danza in Cuba and Puerto Rico
by Elias Barreiro
During the 19th century the contradanza and the danza developed in the Caribbean, particularly in Cuba and Puerto Rico. Developing with it were some of the best composers in Latin America: Manuel Saumell, Ignacio Cervantes, Juan Morel Campos. Many other composers from throughout the Caribbean, Latin America, and South America had success in composing in these same forms.
The origin of the danza is believed to be from England and the word contradanza translates as country dance. However, there is speculation that the danza may have begun in Normandy and then adopted by the English. The contradanza consists of two sections of eight measures which are repeated, for a total of thirty-two measures. The first section is called the paseo or promenade where the people would stroll around the dance floor. The second part is faster and couples would start dancing. This second part is better defined than the first and shows the true character of the danza. The contradanza is written in 2/4 and 6/8 time and belongs to the so-called square dance, a style of dancing where couples collaborate to form diverse figures.
The culture of Cuba is a wonderful mixture of Caribbean, Spanish, and African influences, which provides the foundations of Cuba's music. This created an extraordinary and varied culture heritage from which to draw inspiration, creating a unique and rich setting for music. The city of Havana supported Italian Opera, Spanish Zarzuela, theaters, movies, and military bands providing aspiring musicians many opportunities. Spanish contributions to the music of Cuba are melodic and harmonic while the rhythmic African influence supplies it with its most distinct traits.

Blue Note 99241 (www.bluenote.com) The interaction between Cuban and North American music has a long history, one that began in New Orleans. In the mid-nineteenth century, Crescent City pianist and composer Louis Moreau Gottschalk traveled throughout the Caribbean, freely incorporating into his compositions the melodies and rhythms of the region's diverse musical traditions ( Louis Moreau Gottschalk , Smithsonian Folkways SF40803). By the 1870s, the habanera bass line, an essential stylistic feature of the Cuban contradanza , was gaining popularity as the first major Latin influence on North American music. First linked via the transatlantic slave trade, as major Caribbean ports separated by a mere 650 miles, Havana and New Orleans swapped musicians, touring acts, instruments and sheet music in a process of cultural exchange extended by twentieth-century recording technology, radio broadcasting and the record business. U.S. firms began recording in Havana in 1906, and many sides found their way north long before the first New Orleans recording sessions in 1923. Of course, ragtime and early jazz were steeped in a Caribbean gumbo as well. Jelly Roll Morton built in
