The latest issue of the Catalan Musical Magazine dedicates a comprehensive and accurate dossier to the figure of Ricardo Viñes (1875-1943), a leading figure of Catalan piano music and of the musical avant-garde of the first third of the 20th century, who has an indisputable international projection. He was a generational companion and friend of composers such as Manuel de Falla, Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy, and his interpretative technique is still remembered through some of the recordings he made throughout his life. An intense life despite a sad end, with Viñes condemned to poverty in his last three years, lived in Barcelona.
