Cordoba from from "Chants de Espange", Op. 232, the suite of originally three, later five pieces for the piano composed by Isaac Albéniz. Prélude, Orientale and Sous le palmier were published in 1892, and Córdoba and Seguidillas were added in the 1898 edition. Walter Aaron Clark, American guitarist and musicologist states that the name of the 4th piece "Córdoba" may have been inspired by Albéniz's namesake, St. Isaac of Córdoba, who died defending his faith in this southern Andalusian city.
In video this is Spanish classical and flamenco guitarist Adam del Monte who plays "Córdoba" on guitar by Francisco Manuel Diaz from Granada.
