Homenajes: Finding Spanish Identity in Falla\u27s Orchestral Suite

Using biographical criticism, this thesis examines Manuel de Falla’s Homenajes (1939) as a reflection of the composer’s views of Spanish identity on regional, national, and international levels. Falla completed Homenajes—a four-movement orchestral suite dedicated to Enrique Fernández Arbós, Claude Debussy, Paul Dukas, and Felipe Pedrell—in Argentina. He began the work in Spain in 1938, during a period of great personal and political disturbance. In 1939, Manuel de Falla left Spain following the end of the Spanish Civil War, which cemented the regime of Francisco Franco. The Francoist regime notoriously aimed to homogenize Spanishness within the country, in part by erasing regional identities and forcing Spaniards to identify as Castilian. With regional and national identity becoming increasingly important issues in Spain, Falla’s composition of Homenajes signaled his return to the mentors who helped shape his ideologies regarding musical Spanishness. Ultimately, Homenajes reflects Falla’s multivalent approach to his national identity, embracing regionalism while also accounting for international influence

Los homenajes de Ramón Gaya

Ramón Gaya’s “homages” constitute an example of an artist’s criticism by another, from the point of view of preference and admiration. In his “homages” R. Gaya quotes others’ works (he modifies them) in order to emphasize in them his own artistic ideal: fluidity and open-endedness. On the other hand, by creating an atmosphere together with its objects, he conjures up their authors’world.Los homenajes de R. Gaya constituyen un ejemplo de crítica de un creador por otro, desde la preferencia y la admiración. En los homenajes Gaya cita obras ajenas (las modifica) para destacar en ellas su propio ideal de fluidez e inacabamiento. Y, por otra parte, al componer una atmósfera y sus objetos, conjura el mundo de sus autores

No obstante, la subjetividad de la escritura mantiene este singular relato a distancia de los modelos del géner
