Pasión Vega uses music and words to explore the sound map of Federico García Lorca. Songs and poems that will remind us that although they killed Federico and silenced his voice, there's a ‘sonorous Lorca’ that will always ring out loud and clear in the echoes of memory. The concert will take place at the Teatro Cervantes in Málaga.
Federico is resurrected here and now in the pure voice of Pasión Vega. At each performance an actor of a different ethnicity will bring the words and beauty of his poems to life again. Federico lives on today beyond the voices of death and dark love; he comes alive again in the black sounds that lead from Manuel Torre to Camarón, in the New York dawn, when Leonard Cohen and Enrique Morente dance a waltz in Vienna and we bring it to the south, like a potion imbibed to the beat, that crosses continents and languages.
Federico García Lorca loved the latent melody, structured with its nerve centres and sprigs of blood.
