Falla鈥檚 peaceful life is plunged into uncertainty as Spanish society is upended by civil war. Presented by Donald Macleod.

Manuel de Falla was not well suited to the role of national musical icon. He was at his happiest, living a simple, monkish existence in his spartan Granada villa; fussing over his music in pleasant isolation or enjoying the company of a few close friends. He was generous but withdrawn, quietly and devotedly religious, and had a horror of being dragged into the violent political conflicts that wracked Spain during the first half of the 20th century. Falla鈥檚 enormous talent and unique musical voice meant he was thrust into the very centre of cultural life, despite himself. He was compelled to navigate his way alongside some of music鈥檚 most colourful and potent characters, and through momentous historical events.

Today, revolution and violence erupts across Spain, resulting in a terrible personal loss for Falla. His inspiration begins to falter as he struggles to complete his final great work.
