	3/29/00: The Three-Cornered Hat of Manuel de Falla
		Manuel de Falla (or fully, Manual Maria de Falla y Matheu) was born in Cadiz on 23 November 1876.
		Falla passed and the idea was taken up by Stravinsky - the result was 'Pulcinella.') The head of the Ballet Russes agreed: the scenario was rewritten, Leonide Massine was engaged to do the choreography and Pablo Picasso provided the costumes and scenery (he also painted a portrait of the composer).
		Falla catches many of the specific acts and movements of the characters, in what is called in ballet, an imitative way or in film music parlance, by mickey-mousing.

		Algunos rasgos de la música de Falla y de su carácter parecen a veces conducir a una torre de marfil, pero en realidad su biografía muestra a un hombre muy cerca de sus amigos y contemporáneos, y su pensamiento musical o sus composiciones tenían mucho de pulcro, pero poco de burbuja incontaminada.

		De Falla nacque nel 1876 a Cádiz, dove iniziò gli studi musicali; successivamente mosse verso Madrid e poi a Parigi, rintrando a Madrid nel 1914.
		Fortemente influenzato dalla tradizione del canto andaluso – e in ogni caso dal canto popolare iberico – si stabilì successivamente a Granada dove entrò in amicizia col poeta Federico Garcia Lorca.
		Anche l’opera strumentale di Falla presenta le stesse fortissime connotazioni della produzione sinfonica; nell’opera pianistica (o per clavicembalo, come il suo Concerto) sono ravvisabili altri influssi, che si concretano in eleganti disegni sulla tastiera, degni della grande tradizione dell’area culturale latina, come quelli di un Couperin o di un Alessandro Scarlatti.
