    My opinion:

    Danza is the first of the 20 pieces that make up Carlos Ocando's Musical Notebook, which are intended for pedagogical purposes.

    Danza It is divided into two sections:

    The first section, rhythmic, in which the melody, played by the right hand, is accompanied by chord chords in the left hand.

    The second section consists of descending arpeggios unfolded and played by both hands, which are played in accelerando, that is, progressively increasing in speed.

    Born in 1978, Carlos Alberto Ocando Martínez is a Venezuelan composer. He completed his musical studies at the José Ángel Lamas Conservatory.

    He has been awarded several times with international prizes for his compositions.
