About Manuel de Falla
Born in Cádiz in 1876, Manuel de Falla is a towering figure in 20th-century Spanish music. His works, which include ballets, operas, and symphonic pieces, have left a lasting impact on global music. After settling in Granada, the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War led him into exile in Argentina, where he passed away in 1946. This concert offers a unique opportunity to rediscover his legacy.
