He was also a leader of the movement towards nationalism in late 19th-century Spanish music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life and Career<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a young man, Granados studied the piano in Barcelona, initially from an army bandmaster. He also studied composition under Felipe Pedrell who was the father of Spanish nationalism in music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1887 Granados went to study in Paris. Unable to study at the Paris Conservatoire<\/a> he obtained private lessons from one of the professors. He returned to Barcelona in 1889.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1898 his first opera Maria de Carmen was premiered and was well received. It even attracted the King’s attention. His 12 Spanish Dances (12 Danzas espa\u00f1olas) was hugely popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1900 Granados founded his own piano school and produced some prominent players. He maintained his involvement until his death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between 1911 and 1913 Granados’s created his famous pieces, the Goyescas. They were based on paintings and tapestries by Francisco de Goya<\/a>. They were then adapted into opera which premiered in 1916 in New York. Immediately following this Granados received an invitation from President Woodrow Wilson<\/a> to play at the White House. The timing of this proved fatal as it resulted in him missing his boat to Spain and instead, having to take a boat to England then another to France. It was on this crossing on 24th March 1916 that Granados lost his life trying to save his wife when a German torpedo hit their boat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
