Lorca

Federico Garcia Lorca, murdered during the Spanish Civil War, is the most beloved and influential of all modern Poets. His reputation puts him as one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. Passionate, urgent, haunting and evocative, Lorca also wrote dramatic, modernist plays, many of which have been performed worldwide.

The Poems will be mostly be sung in English with some verses in Spanish. To soften the challenge the evening will also include courageous material by those who followed Lorca, namely, Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Tim Buckley and of course Nick Drake.

“The highlight of 2007, a sincere tribute by one artist interpreting the work of another.” - Rock n Reel
