Conceived in 1915, Manuel de Falla’s one-act ballet El Amor Brujo (Love, the Magician) is based on songs and folktales Spanish dancer Pastora Imperio and her mother had shared with Falla. El Amor Brujo was cast as a Gitanería (Gypsy entertainment), with songs, dances and spoken dialogue.

Garrido’s 2024 production is a restaging of acclaimed performances, including the 2015 premiere with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, a sold-out 2018 performance with the South Florida Symphony Orchestra and a spellbinding 2019 rendition at the Hollywood Bowl.

The first act will premiere symphonic compositions by Jose Luis de la Paz and Juan Parrilla, setting the mood for Falla’s masterpiece. Garrido’s Amor Brujo promises an immersive celebration of rhythm, passion and the universal language of music and dance.

Witness the magic of flamenco and symphonic music uniting in harmony, transcending cultural boundaries and leaving an indelible mark on the soul.
