Note "Goyescas, the title meaning Goya-esque or Goya-like, is highly unusual in the complex nature of its inspiration. Through the influence of writer Fernando Periquet, Granados became inspired by the Spanish painter Francisco Goya (1746-1828). Granados drew inspiration from the painter's ability to depict what Granados saw as the essence of the Spanish character. It was the atmosphere, the people and the details of their lives within the context of Goya's Madrid, which spoke to Granados."--Notes, p. 2.
Although the penultimate piece, El pelele, is not part of the suite, it is frequently performed as part of Goyescas.--Notes, p. 2.
"This disc includes the first recording of Serenata goyesca, a separate piece which is thought to have formed part of the first draft of Goyescas."--Container.
