Colección “Facsímiles”, Serie
“Manuscritos”, 1. Granada, 1997. Oblong, 25 x 17 cm, xiii, 168
pp. 3-color halftone of Falla’s fascinating autograph piano reduction
score of his celebrated
one-act opera “Life is Short”. With this work the composer won the 1905
composition prize of
the Real Academia de Bellas Artes. The manuscript reproduced here
represents the closest
version to the prize-winning version; the additions in red ink and
pencil corrections show
the beginning of the transformation that the opera would take in its
premiere and publication
years later. An indispensable source with many precious details for the
study of the earliest
important work of Falla. Linen. $86
