	Manuel de Falla
		Manuel de Falla, the leading Spanish composer of the 20th century, and one of the most illustrious figures in the long of discontinuous musical history of his country, was born on 23 November 1876 at Cadiz, the ancient seaport at the southern-most tip of Andalucía.

		Of greater significance were his studies with Felipe Pedrell, to whom he later declared he owed “the clear answering purposefulness” of his works.

	A Report on the IHMSG Study Session 1994
		Despite the fact that the majority of members of the IHMSG appear to focus their research upon music from earlier epochs, the interest in and level of exchange surrounding these two papers was extensive and spirited.
		The subject of the paper by Seitz, Pedrell's manifesto, Por nuestra música, elaborating his vision of national opera in Spain, was first published in 1891 with his opera, the trilogy Los Pirineos.
		One of Pedrell's primary goals was to push composers beyond the stereotypical clichés that had come to represent the traditional music of Spain so that they would be more fully aware of the scope of their native traditions, and thus, they would move Spain away from the musical domination by other countries.

	Gerhard: Violin Concerto (1943)
		Just as his reputation as a composer was blossoming in the late 1930s, the onset of the Spanish Civil War meant that (as a supporter of the Republican cause) he had to flee the country.
		He first acknowledged his debt to Pedrell with a Symphony based on themes from an unpublished opera by his teacher.
		In his subsequent Violin Concerto (1942-5), he took as his starting-point the Concertino mentioned earlier; and the central slow movement of the work pays a seventieth-birthday tribute to Schoenberg with chorale-like music based on the twelve-note row of Schoenberg’s Fourth String Quartet.

	THE SYMPHONIES OF ROBERTO GERHARD by Paul Conway (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		He studied the piano with Granados in Barcelona between 1915 and 1916 and composition with Felipe Pedrell until the latter's death in 1922.
		Though the serialism of the later symphonies is absent, there is a brilliance in the orchestration and a dark, eerie use of Spanish rhythms and folksongs which is also to be found in the official canon.
		Their commitment and understanding of the score means that "Homenaje a Pedrell" emerges as a satisfying achievement in its own right rather than a piece of juvenilia of curiosity value only.

		The operatic efforts of Felipe Pedrell, who died in 1922 having worked like a Spanish Glinka to create a national identity out of all the Oriental, Moorish, Basque, Arab and Turkish cultural invasions and the spicy Catalan Provençal minstrelsy, were rewarded only by relative obscurity.
		He left a legacy that was quickly taken up by the next generation, Albeniz, Granados, Conrado del Campo who proved more able operatically, and de Falla.
		None were much concerned with their benefactor; but Pedrell, who wanted to be a sort of Spanish Wagner, was not (as far as can be judged by the texts) a very strong composer.
