3 Poèmes

Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936) describes shattering events in a narrative emanating from the depths of his imagination in a sensitive poetic language. The musical representations of these graphic scenes occur sparsely in subtle, restrained ways, placing emphasis on the writer’s poetical side. The guitar is an ideal instrument for that purpose, with the human voice remaining essentially lyrical. The expressive manifestations and the deep psychological underpinnings of the text are only occasionally underlined within the accompaniment.
