Enrique Granados was born in Lleida, a city in Catalonia, Spain, but the journey of his musical career would take him all the way to New York City in the United States. The city, and indeed, places around America, were experiencing great changes due to the rise of the Progressivism, which changed the country for years to come. And World War I would also begin during this time, which affected Europe greatly. Tied to Granados’ eventual trip to New York City was his piano suite, Goyescas. This work was later adopted by Granados into an opera, and it is thanks to this that the composer became connected to New York City. Today, The Piano Histories Podcast will detail the history behind Enrique Granados’ Goyescas, Op.11, as well as part of the history of New York City and World War I.
