The Millers Dance - Manuel de Falla

Manuel de Falla is considered one of the biggest Spanish composers. He was very interested in native Spanish folk music, whose influence is rather noticeable in this piece. The Three Cornered Hat, which was premiered in 1919, is not a ballet in classical sense but a pure Spanish dance. The Miller's Dance is a so-called, Farruca, a typical dance for men, extremely tense, with an acceleration in tempo at the end.
