Debussy and Ravel both said it changed how they heard music ✨ 🎧 Iberia — Triana Manuel de Falla · 1876–1946 · Spain Spain's greatest composer of the 20th century — his ballet El amor brujo contains the Ritual Fire Dance, one of the most viscerally exciting two minutes in all of classical music 🔥 A deeply devout, almost ascetically private man, he poured everything he had into a tiny, perfect body of work that defined Spanish music for the world. 🎧 El amor brujo — Ritual Fire Dance 👉 Which one's music do you want to explore more?
