description
El amor brujo owes its origin to the inspiration provided by the gypsy dancer Pastora lmperio and her mother, Rosario la Mejorana, from whom Falla learned much about gypsy songs and traditions. The scenario was provided by Gregorio Martinez Sierra. Candelas, a beautiful and passionate gypsy girl, has loved a dissolute and faithless young gypsy. Her life with him was difficult, but now that he is dead she cannot forget him. • The original version of El amor brujo, in which Pastora Imperio performed at the first staging at the Teatro Lara in Madrid in 1915, uses a relatively small group of instruments and contains material that was omitted from the more familiar revised concert version. The best known element in the score must be the Danza ritual del fuego (Ritual Fire Dance), para ahuyentar los malos espiritus (to banish evil spirits) which, in the original version, is the Danza delfin del dia (Dance of the End of the Day), a dance that has appeared in a wide variety of arrangements, for better or worse.
