Comments

"Sketch is written in the form of a habanera. Montsalvatge wraps the sensual rhythm in a unique harmonic language and creates a highly refined and sophisticated tone."

Douglas Riva, 1998.

"The rhythm and evocative cadence of this Sketch correspond to the prototype of the habanera, glossed with a peculiar harmonic restlessness, and a fine and delicate spirit."

Manuel Valls i Gorina, 1968.
