GOYA INSPIRES GRANADOS
In this small notebook, Granados sketched ideas for his musical works: Los Ovillejos (a one-act zarzuela that was left incomplete), the Tonadillas, and his piano suite Goyescas (which borrowed ideas originally planned for Los Ovillejos). The notebook is open to a drawing, reminiscent of the works of Goya, entitled El coloquio en la reja (Dialogue at the Window), which became the title of the second number in Goyescas. On the facing page is a sketch for the tonadilla (short, satirical solo song) El mirar de la maja.
