Pablo Casals was a Spanish cellist, conductor, and composer. He is considered one of the greatest cellists of all time. Casals was a lifelong advocate for peace and social justice. He was forced into exile from Spain during the Spanish Civil War and spent the rest of his life living in France and Switzerland.

Casals was a close friend of many of the leading musicians of his day, including Isaac Albéniz, Manuel de Falla, and Igor Stravinsky. He also commissioned works from many of these composers.
