Viele Werke Manuel de Fallas sind fester Bestandteil des Konzert- und Theaterrepertoires, eine Darstellung seines Lebens und seiner Musik in deutscher Sprache sucht man jedoch vergebens.Der Autor lernte den Komponisten 1943 in dessen argentinischem Asyl kennen und hat mit ihm zahlreiche Gesprache gefuhrt. Die Erinnerungen an diese Begegnung verbindet er mit einer Beschreibung seines Werdeganges und mit Betrachtungen seiner Kompositionen, wobei er nachdrucklich auf die Traditionen spanischer Musikgeschichte vor und nach de Falla verweist.Der Blick auf die Zusammenhange von spanischer Lebensweise und Kunstleistung vermittelt dem Leser nicht nur ein anschauliches Bild vom Musikleben des Landes, sondern vermag ihm ebenso die Personlichkeit und Grosse dieses wichtigen spanischen Musikers des 20. Jahrhunderts nahezubringen.

Composed by Manuel de Falla during his lengthy residence in Paris, these three symphonic impressions for piano and orchestra are an expressive work bringing the southern Spanish gardens, which are laid out in the European and Arabic-Moorish tradition, to life. The influence of contemporary French music is noticeable in this composition. Despite many modifications, involving among other things, the scoring, number of movements, as well as layout and content, the basic idea of a nocturnal impression is retained from the outset. The work was finished - and likewise the orchestral material - only shortly before its premiere on 9 April 1916, which was a great success. World War I prevented its publication, though further performances followed, played then from manuscript material. The Urtext edition presented by Ullrich Scheideler takes as the main source the first edition of the score. The Critical Report gives detailed information about the source situation.

This edition of EL AMOR BRUJO (LOVE, THE SORCERER) is the 1924 revision of the 1915 version by Spanish composer Manuel de Falla (1876 - 1946). Originally a collaboration between de Falla, the flamenco dancer Pastora Imperio, and librettist MarÃa MartÃnez Sierra, the ballet follows Candela, a recent widow who attempts to dispel her abusive late husband's ghost so she can remarry. The original version of the ballet was not well-received, so de Falla dialed back the Roma cultural elements prominent in the original version and expanded the size of the orchestra to appeal to contemporary audiences. The 1924 version premiered in Paris on May 1925. Reprint Edition. Instrumentation: 2(2nd dPicc).1(dEH).2.1: 2.2.0.0: Timp.Perc(1): Pno: Str (4-4-3-3-3 in set): Contralto Voice.

A spell-binding exploration of the music of Spain, FantasÃÂa Española features four exciting yet contrasting sections and challenging parts for all players. Three of Spain's most famous composers are represented in this medley arranged by Bob Phillips. The piece begins with an exciting, driving excerpt from Asturias (Leyenda), by Isaac Albéniz, which, though written for piano, is most often heard on guitar. The setting of this section allows the violins and violas a display of virtuosity with its unrelenting rhythmic drive. Beautiful, lyric, and emotional, Tango in D, also by Albéniz, will showcase the musicianship of the entire orchestra. Originally written for piano, the strings will shine in this second section of the arrangement. The third section is the slow and lyric, Adelita. Drawn from the deep treasure of Spanish guitar music and written by the father of classical guitar, Francisco Tárrega, this piece is simply beautiful. The medley concludes with Danza Ritual del Fuego from the ballet El Amor Brujo. Written by Manuel de Falla for full orchestra, the string setting drives to a fabulous and dramatic finish.(5:45).

Fuego Fatuo has an interesting history. Manuel De Falla (1876-1946), often regarded as the greatest Spanish composer of the 20th century, wanted to write an opera based around themes from Chopin, whomhe greatly admired. The stage work was never finished; however, several attempts have been made to arrange the work for orchestra, most successfully by the Catalan conductor Antoni Ros-Marba.
Despite its history,this orchestral suite is far from being a mere mish-mash of Chopin melodies; it is more of a meditation on Chopin's work in general, with the focus on the harmonic and textural elements which De Falla drew from his work.It forms a fascinating insight into the mind of a great musician.
