Parralejo Masa Francisco, El músico como intelectual. Adolfo Salazar y la creación del discurso de la vanguardia musical española (1914-1936)
Music and modernity in interwar Spain have been a key area of study for Spanish musicology over the past four decades, and one that coincides with the resurgence of the discipline within that nation. My own interest in the area dates back to the late 1980s, a period in which issues of musical modernity and the institutional frameworks of the Edad de Plata [Silver Age] had resurfaced in the literature, at times imbued with a quasi-political zeal t…
Carmen Abroad
For over a century, flamenco has been closely associated with productions of Carmen around the world. Bizet’s gypsy protagonist is often depicted as a flamenco performer while it has become commonplace to perceive aspects of flamenco in Bizet’s score.

Manuel de Falla' s Siete canciones populares españolas
Manuel de Falla's personal library provides a unique resource for the study of the composer's assimilation of ideas, and his lifelong habit of annotating his reading material and scores heightens the library's usefulness to an understanding of his creative process. Falla's reliance on musical borrowings in his compositions means that a study of the printed scores in his library often gives insights into the sources employed and the development of…
Manuel de Falla, Debussy and La vida breve
During his years in Paris (1907-14) Manuel de Falla came into frequent contact with Claude Debussy, a composer whose influence was critical in shaping the Spaniard's mature compositional style. This article explores the nature of the contacts between the composers during 1907-14 by focussing on Debussy's role in Falla's revision of La vida breve. Several recently discovered documents and previously uncited sources clarify Debussy's impact on La v…
