Dicen que en esa noche se abre una puerta \u201cal otro lado\u201d, ese que nunca percibimos. En cada playa, en cada rinc\u00f3n se encender\u00e1n hogueras para pedir deseos y quemar malos pensamientos. Saldr\u00e1n los trasgos, danzar\u00e1n las hadas, los tesoros encantados quedar\u00e1n a manos de los mortales, y los encantamientos podr\u00e1n ser rotos esa noche. Las j\u00f3venes se lavar\u00e1n la cara en agua pura y cristalina para mantener su belleza.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Quiz\u00e1 por esos pensamientos sobre el fuego, hoy record\u00e9 a un gran compositor espa\u00f1ol, y una de sus mejores obras desde mi punto de vista: Manuel de Falla y su \u201cAmor brujo\u201d. El ballet \u201cEl amor brujo\u201d fue compuesto entre 1914 y 1915, tras la vuelta del compositor de Paris, como respuesta a la petici\u00f3n de la cantante y bailarina Pastora Imperio. Quer\u00eda una pieza en la que pudiese destacar tanto su voz como su baile. La obra fue un fracaso, as\u00ed que Falla la modific\u00f3, y centr\u00f3 la composici\u00f3n principalmente en la m\u00fasica y la danza. Esta es la versi\u00f3n que ha llegado hasta nosotros.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">La historia, de marcado car\u00e1cter andaluz, cuenta los amores de la gitana Candela con el apuesto Carmelo. Aunque la joven lo ama, es cada noche tentada por el espectro del que fue su amante, un gitano celoso, malvado, pero fascinante, por el que siente una atracci\u00f3n fatal. Es con la ayuda de otra mujer que el joven consigue arrebatar a su amada de las garras de ese amor nefasto y sobrenatural. Baile, muerte y amor son los ingredientes de esta obra que nos ha dejado piezas tan impresionantes como la \u201cDanza ritual del fuego\u201d, la \u201cCanci\u00f3n del fuego fatuo\u201d o la \u201cDanza del terror\u201d. Una m\u00fasica hipn\u00f3tica, casi m\u00edstica, que juega con el flamenco y melod\u00edas orientales, dotando a \u201cEl amor brujo\u201d de una fuerza casi sobrenatural. Gracias a Carlos Saura y su adaptaci\u00f3n para el cine disfrutamos de estos videos, con Antonio Gades y Cristina Hoyos al baile y la voz Roc\u00edo Jurado.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Como dec\u00eda, m\u00fasica perfecta para escuchar en una noche m\u00e1gica como esta. \u00a1No os olvid\u00e9is de realizar vuestros conjuros y pedir vuestros deseos! Y sobre todo, de quemar en ese fuego purificador cualquier objeto que represente un mal recuerdo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Antonio Gades.El Amor Brujo.

It is said that in this night a door \u201cto the other side\u201d is opened, the \u201cside\u201d that we never perceive. In every beach, in every place bonfires will be lit to make wishes and burn bad thoughts. The goblins will go out, the fairies will dance, enchanted treasures will fall into mortal hands, and\u00a0 enchantments could be broken on this night. Young women will wash their face in pure and crystalline water to maintain their beauty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Maybe caused by these thoughts about fire, I remembered today a great Spanish composer and one of his best works from my point of view: Manuel de Falla and his literally <em>Spell-bound Love<\/em>, but generally known as <em>Love, the Magician<\/em> &#8220;. The ballet &#8220;<em>Love, the Magician<\/em>\u201d was composed between 1914 and 1915, after the return of the composer from Paris, as a response to the singer and dancer Pastora Imperio&#8217;s request. She wanted a piece where she could emphasize both her voice and her dance. It was a failure, so Falla modified it, and focused the composition mainly on music and dance. This one is the version that has come up to us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The history, of marked Andalusian character, talks about the love between the gypsy Candela and the handsome Carmelo. Although the young woman loves him, she is tempted every night by the spectre of a former lover, a jealous, wicked, but fascinating gypsy, for whom she feels a fatal attraction. It is with another woman\u2019s help that the young man gets to wrench her beloved from the claws of this pernicious and supernatural love. Dance, death, and love are the ingredients of this work that has left us pieces as amazing as the \u201cRitual Fire Dance&#8221;, the \u201cSong of the will-o&#8217;-the-wisp\u201d or the &#8220;Dance of terror&#8221;. A hypnotic, almost mystical music, which plays with flamenco and oriental melodies, giving to &#8220;<em>Love, the Magician<\/em>\u201d an almost supernatural force. It is thanks to Carlos Saura and his screen version that we can enjoy watching these videos, with Antonio Gades and Cristina Hoyos as dancers, and Roc\u00edo Jurado&#8217;s voice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">As I was saying, the perfect music to listen to during a magical night as this one. Do not forget to make your spells and wishes! And obviously, to burn in this purifier bonfire any object that represents an unhappy memory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"El amor brujo - Manuel de Falla\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ftd8tIdiYq4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Noche de San Juan\u2026 noche de brujas, seres sobrenaturales y leyendas.
