Cançó i dansa - Catalan; English: Songs and Dances; each originally published singly under the Spanish title Canción y Danza[1] ) is the title of a collection of 15 pieces by Federico Mompou, written between 1918 and 1972.
Each piece consists of an introductory slow Cançó, followed by a more animated Dansa in a related key but not necessarily in the same time signature.
They are mostly based on existing Catalan folk tunes, although some of them are original works.
Many of them have been recorded individually, by pianists such as Arthur Rubinstein, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, Stephen Hough, Stanislas Niedzielski, Artur Pizarro, Neil Galanter and others.
The complete collection has been recorded by the composer himself, Alicia de Larrocha, Martin Jones, Jordi Masó, Gustavo Romero, and Peter Fletcher (in his own arrangements for guitar).
