This edition, directed from the Pilar Bayona Archive by the pianist\u2019s own nephews, <strong>Antonio Bayona <\/strong>and <strong>Juli\u00e1n G\u00f3mez<\/strong>, and introduced by the writer <strong>Juan Marqu\u00e9s<\/strong>, is particularly notable for the way it illuminates Bayona\u2019s relationship with a constellation of figures who would shape the artistic landscape of the period.<\/p>\n<p>Born in Zaragoza in 1897, Pilar Bayona was a child prodigy who soon found herself performing in both Barcelona and Madrid. She studied with the Sirvent brothers, themselves pupils of <strong>Joaqu\u00edn Malats<\/strong>\u2014the pianist who served as the muse for Alb\u00e9niz\u2019s <em>Iberia<\/em> suite. Bayona would go on to become a consummate interpreter of this monumental work. Alb\u00e9niz had once written to Malats on 22 August 1907: \u201cThis work, this <em>Iberia<\/em> of my sins, I write essentially for you and because of you\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pilar Bayona performs <em>Evocaci\u00f3n<\/em>, <em>Lavapi\u00e9s<\/em>, <em>M\u00e1laga<\/em>, and <em>Erita\u00f1a<\/em> by Alb\u00e9niz (1962)<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Pilar Bayona plays Albeniz &quot;Iberia&quot; (extraits)\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/13KdFbjT38U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Malats, in turn, had been a student of Juan Bautista Pujol, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museodelprado.es\/coleccion\/obra-de-arte\/fantasia-sobre-fausto\/5421e717-559f-4d20-9ef9-e77868b20b4d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the pianist immortalised by Fortuny<\/a><\/span> in his <em>Fantas\u00eda sobre Fausto<\/em> (1866), housed today in the Prado Museum.<\/p>\n<p>Following the First World War, Bayona toured France and Germany with notable success. In a letter to composer <strong>Eduardo L\u00f3pez Ch\u00e1varri<\/strong> dated 10 October 1925\u2014nearly a century ago\u2014she described her impressions:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve met many musicians, and in Stuttgart, where I also performed, I was introduced to Maestro [Wilhelm] Kempf, director of the conservatoire, as well as to one of his female pupils who played in the modern manner: using her entire arm, straining tremendously and adopting the most dreadful posture\u2014clearly exhausting, and most unnatural. The amusing thing is that what the Germans most appreciated was precisely my effortless style. They were enthralled by Falla and Alb\u00e9niz, and by the other composers as well, although they found the works too slight\u2014and to some extent, they\u2019re right, for the Spanish repertoire lacks the kind of large-scale works they favour. They treated us extremely well and were, if anything, too generous\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pilar Bayona performs <em>Toccata BWV 914<\/em> by Bach<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"J. S Bach: Tocata BWV 914.

A staunch advocate of contemporary music, she dedicated much of her energy to studying and premiering works for solo piano and chamber ensembles by composers of her generation.<\/p>\n<p>Among the many artists in her circle, particular mention must be made of <strong>Carlos Baena<\/strong>, who would become principal cellist of the Spanish National Orchestra. Bayona and Baena shared a close, playful rapport, often exchanging clever wordplay and musical references. A particularly poignant example is the farewell formula frequently used in her correspondence, drawn from Beethoven\u2019s Sonata Op. 81a, in which the composer bids farewell to the imperial family with the word <em>Lebewohl<\/em>\u2014farewell\u2014under the melancholic call of the horn evoked at the keyboard.<\/p>\n<p>Beethoven, <em>Sonata Op. 81a \u201cLes adieux\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe day you left\u201d, Baena wrote, \u201cthe four of us (your cousins, Galve and I) went for coffee (just to do something) at a caf\u00e9 on Preciados Street, and we couldn\u2019t bring ourselves to part ways. We felt a profound sadness. You were missing, your absence keenly felt, for you were absolutely essential. And yet the cruel reality was that you were departing\u2014irrevocably\u2014at a dreadful speed. Even had we wished to follow, our poor human forms could never have kept pace with that horrible machine carrying you away\u2026 I found myself living in a world of images, of memories glimpsed through the physical world around me\u2014trams, underground, taxis, and so on. I spent several days thus, thinking of the True Music to which you had drawn me ever more deeply\u2014that ineffable world of Debussy\u2026 until at last I succumbed to the weight of the strident reality in which I am now inescapably immersed\u201d (December 1940).<\/p>\n<p>There is a striking intimacy in the way other artists addressed Bayona, clearly speaking from a place of trust and deep affection. Luis Galve, another pianist from Zaragoza with a long and distinguished career, wrote:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDear Pilar: I\u2019d love to hear just <em>some<\/em> of what you\u2019ve said or thought about me\u2014just some, because if I found out everything, I\u2019d have to wring your neck. Anyway, here I am in letter form. We\u2019ll see how long you take to reply, since you probably think that with that miserly postcard you sent, you\u2019ve done your duty for the next five or six months\u201d (Madrid, 13 February 1940).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDear Pilar: My left ear is burning from so much time on the telephone\u2014talking to everyone to find you a concert. They all ended up directing me to the Philharmonic Orchestra, which indeed has it, and according to Carlos Baena (your tireless admirer\u2026 but what is it you give him, Pilar\u00edn?), Maestro P\u00e9rez Casas is more than happy to lend it to you. Carlos is handling the rest. Imagine\u2014I even had the audacity to ask Cubiles himself, and he was extremely kind. He even said you were intelligent!\u201d (Madrid, 2 April 1940).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDear Pilar: I\u2019ve been meaning to write to show signs of life, but time slips away when one is working, and you see how it is\u2026 What sort of life are you living? Are you still practising? Aren\u2019t you thinking of coming this way? You really ought to get out of Zaragoza for a bit\u2014for many reasons. Otherwise, locked away down in that radio station basement, you\u2019re going to end up like one of those charming mummies in the museums\u2014or at best, looking like a tube station ticket clerk, which is more or less the same thing\u2026 Promise me you\u2019ll never lose heart. Those who cannot play like you are the ones truly unfortunate. And don\u2019t forget: injustice has always existed and will continue to exist for as long as the world turns. Don\u2019t you dare leave me hanging. Send my regards to your brothers and friends out there\u2014and a firm pinch for you, without letting Baena, Luis [Garc\u00eda-Abrines], [Alfonso] Bu\u00f1uel or [Juan P\u00e9rez] P\u00e1ramo, or any of your endless entourage that surrounds you find out\u201d (Madrid, 28 July 1940).<\/p>\n<p>Pilar Bayona never married, and her life unfolded between Zaragoza and Pamplona, where she devoted herself tirelessly to her pedagogical mission. She was also a regular presence at the Jaca International Summer Courses, to which she contributed annually.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, it is Carlos Baena who offers what is perhaps the most faithful portrait of the pianist, captured in a letter from December 1939: <em>tr\u00e8s calme et doucement expressif<\/em> mood, in which the profound spiritual and artistic essence of the pianist is conveyed:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis [previous piece of music] expresses wonderfully the memory I have of you\u2014by \u2018you\u2019, I mean your entire being, everything in you that is spiritual, psychic, and physical. It resonates perfectly with me, and any attempt to express in words what Music expresses would be futile. A musical phrase can convey emotions one could never articulate in speech\u2014especially if those feelings are of a lofty or idealistic nature\u201d (December 1940).<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Pr\u00e9ludes, Book 1, L. 125: VIII.
