El noguer / El mas (The Walnut-Tree House / The Farmhouse)Among the pieces composed by Ricard Lamote de Grignon there are two sardanes that are often associated: El noguer (The Walnut Tree) and El mas (The Farmhouse), since they are both short, distinguishing them from the rest, which are all of a long musical discourse and, therefore, of long tiratge or 'run' (number of measures).
The style of each of these two pieces is quite distinct. Without differing from Ricard Lamote de Grignon's very personal style, El noguer presents elements that are more intrinsic to a sardana 'de plaza' (town-square sardana), such as the song of the tenora in the llargs (long measures) on a conventional accompaniment of the brass. El mas, on the other hand, follows the intimist line of its predecessor -Enyor (Longing)- and in some points (such as in the main theme of the llargs) it allows one to glimpse the proximity of Amical, which the composer was to write the following year and which became, unquestionably, the most widely-known sardana of his entire production.
