Manuel Oltra was born in Valencia in 1922 but he lived and worked the greatest part of his life in Catalonia.  Few composers at the end of the 20th Century and the beginning of the 21st Century have devoted themselves so fervently to our popular music as he did.  Although his works include numerous musical genres, he is primarily known for his choral music (especially the harmonization of traditional songs and villancicos) and works scored for cobla, including more than 30 sardanas.  In addition, Oltra was a the composition teacher of an entire generation of composers, and one of the finest experts in the techniques of pedagogy for musical composition as evidenced in his exemplary catalogue of works revealing his mastery of harmony, counterpoint, orchestration, instrumentation and analysis.  
 
Due to the unquestionable value of his musical artistry and coinciding with the anniversary of his sad loss, the publishers have decided to recover and make known some of his works which were not published during his lifetime.  For many years Editorial Boileau had both a strong professional and personal relationship with this composer to whom our country owes so much.  With this publication of previously unpublished works we would like to offer Manuel Oltra our most sincere respects.  

This album also includes two short works for violin and piano, Berceuse and Súplica.  Both were composed during the composer’s military service in Spanish Morocco.  In spite his expectations, this period was a very positive one for Manuel Oltra in his professional live since
the highest Commissioner of Spanish Morocco was a music lover who commissioned the composer to organize a series of concerts as well as the creation of the Spanish-Moroccan Conservatory in Tetuán.
