With these 2 popular ballets, El Amor Brujo ("Love, the Magician") and El Sombrero de Tres Picos ("The Three-Cornered Hat"), Falla brought the world's attention to the music of Spain. The composer himself made these arrangements of the complete ballets for piano solo. Several of these pieces have become standards in the solo piano repertoire.
