The two were very different – Lorca was gay, liberal, and a member of the \u003cem\u003eavant garde\u003c\/em\u003e, while Falla was a devout Catholic – yet they had a profound mutual influence. The two developed an intimate friendship, which ended when Lorca was shot by Nationalist forces at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLorca in Tune with Falla\u003c\/em\u003e is the first book to trace Lorca’s impact on Falla’s music, and Falla’s influence on Lorca’s writings. Nelson R. Orringer explores the music underlying \u003cem\u003ePoem of Deep Song\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eGypsy Ballads\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eLament for Ignacio SÁnchez MejÍas\u003c\/em\u003e, bringing out the analogous sounds and ideas that emerge in the active, ongoing connection between the artworks of both creators. The book emphasizes how this harmony increases knowledge and appreciation of both artists.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54253299728728,"sku":"9781442647299","price":78.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781442647299_8258f990-eab6-4f70-8459-36d973e4d900.jpg?v=1777116636","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lorca-in-tune-with-falla","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
