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 vida breve. Debussy's influence ranges from specific suggestions to more general remarks on dramatic construction, vocal declamation and scenic production
