Lozano will showcase his vast knowledge and skillful interpretation of “romances,” a type of short literary composition, epic-lyrical in nature, which narrate a story by singing or reciting it. They emerged from oral storytelling and became popular in the 15th century, forming collections called romanceros. Wherever Spanish or Castilian was spoken, romances were sung, from Tierra del Fuego in South America to southern Colorado in the U.S., forming a predominant part of traditional Hispanic culture.
Free admission.
