Manuel Blasco de Nebra: the Spanish Emanuel Bach? You could see Blasco de Nebra as a Spanish analogy to the young Bach son. Blasco de Nebra was just as sensitive and innovative a composer for the keyboard, who also just missed out on the limelight. But in retrospect, he proved to be crucial in the musical transition from Baroque to Classicism. In this episode, we will listen to a few sonatas from his small but fascinating piano oeuvre.
