Description:

Fantasy and Passion Born in 19th-Century SpainSongs that Resonate Across Time and BordersNineteenth-century Spain bestowed upon Europe an inexhaustible sense of fantasy through music and poetry. Passed down orally and refined by composers, Spanish art songs embody the depth of flamenco and the breath of the people, while portraying a rich variety of emotions. Numerous works created in the 20th century trace a thread of feminine imagery and passion from Madrid to Andalusia and Castile, extending further to the Cuban habanera and the Argentine tango. These songs awaken memories and nostalgia.Marion Verg-Pascal, a French mezzo-soprano who rose to prominence after being selected for the Adami Competition, began her singing career in a childrens choir and graduated from the Paris Conservatoire National Suprieur de Musique in 2023. She is a member of the Queen Elisabeth Music Chap
