Description
Gypsy Romances & Poem of the Deep Song will be the first book in English devoted entirely to Lorca's two collections of Gypsy-inspired verse. Gypsy Romances (Romancero Gitano) is, of course, by far the world's best-known book of Spanish poetry. Less known but equally entrancing is Lorca's tribute to Flamenco: Poem of the Deep Song (Poema del Cante Jondo). This celebration of Spain's quintessential music is as fragrant as Manuel de Falla's Nights in the Gardens of Spain or Debussy's España. Trained as a classical pianist, Lorca's first love and lifelong passion was music. This version, by a prize-winning poet and translator who is also an orchestral musician and composer, captures as never before the music of García Lorca's verse.
