Paco de Lucía interpreta a Manuel de Falla is the twelfth studio album by the Spanish composer and guitarist Paco de Lucía. All the pieces were written by Manuel de Falla.[1]

De Falla was a composer who wrote very little music for the guitar.[2] Although there is no doubt that de Falla was influenced by cante jondo,[3] his music has to be arranged for guitar. In this respect, he can be compared to another Spanish composer, Isaac Albéniz whose piano music has entered the guitar repertory.

The three dances from The Three-Cornered Hat (1911) were originally written for orchestra. They take the form of seguidillas ("Danza de los Vecinos") and farrucas (the dances of the miller and his wife).

El Amor Brujo was written to feature a flamenco dancer plus actors and musicians. It was originally scored for a small band and a singer, a vocal part intended for a cantaora.
