Description
La vida breve is the first great work by Manuel de Falla. It introduces an orchestral scope that was previously unheard of in Hispanic musical theatre and has the incredible ability to evoke the magic of the Albaicín in Granada. ‘I am filled with emotion at the prospect of releasing this disc, because for all Spanish conductors Manuel de Falla’s La vida breve is the highpoint of Spanish opera and a fundamental work in our repertoire.’ – Juanjo Mena
