Albeniz, Mateo

(1755-1831)

Mateo Albéniz, also known as Mateo Antonio Pérez de Albéniz, (1755 or 1760 - 23 June 1831) - no relation with Isaac Albéniz - was a Spanish composer and priest. He held a post as Maestro de Capilla in San Sebastián and in Logrońo from 1800 to 1829. Albéniz wrote mainly for the harpsichord and fortepiano. The only work of his which is still played today is the Sonata in D major. Of this piece, also known as "Sonata Zapateado", a popular transcription for guitar has been made and this is the very piece you can download here.
