Music with a Story

Verses of '27

2027 marks one hundred years since the Generation of '27. We propose two musical takes on its poetry: the songs rescued by Federico García Lorca, re-imagined from the piano, and the verses of the women poets that history left in the shadows.

“Barrios has made brilliant versions. It is a very rhythmic,
very energetic and at the same time very polished proposal.” —Diario de Sevilla

The voices '27 left in the shadows
