Una Noche de Poesía

An In-depth look at one song picked from preceding Bailongo De Los Domingos. Each program lasts about 1hr.
We begin by listening to the song and introducing its creators (poets, composers, orchestra leaders, singers, musicians, etc).
We analyze the poem, listen to the song again and finish with a quiz.

This weekly program ran from March 2020 to June 2021 on zoom.
