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.

English comments:
A work written in memory of Manuel de Falla in which the author tackles popular melodies and rhythms immersed in the orchestral fabric of the string section. A string section which, thanks to a wise and daring treatment, manages at all times to give a magical projection to the characteristic timbre of the guitar, a brilliant solo instrument.

Comentarios del Espanol:
Una obra escrita a la memoria de Manuel de Falla en la que el autor aborda melodias y ritmos populares inmersos en el tejido orquestal de la cuerda. Una cuerda que tratada con sabiduria y audacia consigue en todo momento dar una proyeccion magica al timbre caracteristico de la guitarra, brillante instrumento solista.

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.
