Goyescas is a piano suite written in 1911 by Spanish composer Enrique Granados. This piano suite is usually considered Granado's crowning creation and was inspired by the paintings of Francisco Goya, although the piano pieces have not been authoratively associated with any particular paintings.
Goyescas is also a nationalistic one-act opera in three scenes, written in 1916 by Granados to a Spanish libretto by Fernando Periquet y Zuaznabar, made up with melodies from the piano version.
