西班牙作曲家： Federico Mompou 及钢琴曲 Paisajes

费德里科·蒙波·丹科斯（加泰罗尼亚语：Federico Mompou i Dencausse，西班牙语：Federico Mompou，1893年4月16日－1987年6月30日），西班牙加泰罗尼亚作曲家。他的创作受到印象主义音乐以及埃里克·萨蒂的简约风格影响，十分恬淡安逸，而又带着淡淡的西班牙气质。他不写作大型作品，所作基本上都是钢琴曲、歌曲、吉他曲等小规模作品。由于其独特的风格，蒙波的音乐在20世纪乐坛占有一定的地位，并获得过不少奖项。

Style

Mompou is best known as a miniaturist, writing short, relatively improvisatory music often described as "delicate" or "intimate." His principal influences were French impressionism, Erik Satie and Gabriel Fauré, resulting in a style in which musical development is minimized, and expression is concentrated into very small forms. He was fond of ostinato figures, bell imitations (his mother's family owned the Dencausse bell foundry, and his grandfather was a bell maker),[1][3] and a kind of incantatory, meditative sound, the most complete expression of which can be found in his masterpiece Musica Callada (or the Voice of Silence) based on the mystical poetry of Saint John of the Cross. It employs very simple, even childlike melodies, but tinged with sadness, melancholy, and a nostalgic echo of a forgotten far-away land.[citation needed]

He was also influenced by the sounds and smells of the maritime quarter of Barcelona, the cry of seagulls, the sound of children playing, and popular Catalan culture. He often dispensed with bar lines and key signatures. His music is rooted in the chord G?-C-E?-A?-D, which he named Barri de platja (the Beach Quarter).
