Goyescas: An Opera in Three Tableaux (1915)

Goyescas: An Opera In Three Tableaux is a musical masterpiece composed by Enrique Granados in 1915. The opera tells the story of a young couple's love affair, set against the backdrop of 18th-century Spain. The title of the opera is derived from the works of Francisco Goya, a famous Spanish painter, whose paintings provide the inspiration for the music and libretto. The three tableaux of the opera are titled Los Requiebros, Coloquio en la reja, and El fandango de candil, each of which explores different aspects of the couple's relationship. The music is characterized by its rich orchestration, intricate melodies, and use of traditional Spanish rhythms and harmonies. The opera was a critical success upon its premiere and has since become a beloved classic of the Spanish opera repertoire.
