Description: Album Summary ">Falla, Manuel de : El amor brujo ">Falla, Manuel de : Nights in the gardens of Spain ">Falla, Manuel de : Danza del molinero (from "El sombrero de tres picos")"> Performer Ricardo Castro (Piano) Conductor Adrian Leaper Ensemble Grand Canary Philharmonic Orchestra (Orquesta Filarmonica de Gran Canaria) Composer Manuel de Falla (Composer) (1876 - 1946) Notes & Reviews: At the request of the Spanish dancer Pastora Imperia, Manuel de Falla (1876-1946) composed the ballet 'El amor brujo' in 1914/15. In the following year, he finished an arrangement of the work for orchestra alone. Gregorio Martinez Sierra wrote the libretto of the ballet, based on an Iberian saga. There are several key dance sequences that Falla added at the express request of the ballet's commissioner Sergei Diaghilev, who had learned to love Spanish dancing during World War I when he sought refuge in Spain. Spanish gypsy dancing thus inspired all three of the dances recorded on this CD. Combined shipping discount on all items unless otherwise noted.
