In that year the French journal La Revue musicale commissioned ten composers, including Ravel, Satie, Stravinsky and de Falla, to write short pieces in memory of Debussy, who had died in 1918. Falla, who always considered Debussy as one of the chief influences on his music, contributed Homenaje (Homage) a slow, melancholy piece for guitar containing reminiscences of Debussys La sérénade interrompue, Ibéria and La soirée dans Grenade.
