Poetry & Guitar

Due to the global health alarm situation generated by the Covid-19 virus pandemic, we are obliged to take extraordinary measures in accordance with the indications of the competent authorities. Therefore, we recommend booking the activities you want to attend through the following communication channels:

Curiously, it was a Spanish poet, the Malaga priest Vicente Espinel, who added a fifth string to the guitar at the end of the 16th century, giving color and music to his poetic compositions. Later, it would be at the beginning of the 18th century when the sixth string would be added to complete the instrument as we know it today.

And it is that Poetry & Guitar have always gone through intertwined paths and in each encounter, like a couple in love, together they have been the clearest expressive manifestation of art, their peaceful transmission and sweet sound are harmonious stories whispered to hatred. And poets such as Federico García Lorca, Gerardo Diego or Vicente Huidobro, among many others, inspired by musical notes, managed to inspire with their lyrics, the creation of the most sublime art in poetic guitar.

Closing this presentation and by way of understanding we offer you this poem where Vicente Huidobro describes the guitar without mentioning it at any time.

Whisper in the ear!

Sobre sus rodillas
Había algunas notas

Una mujer pequeñita dormía
Y seis cuerdas cantan
en su vientre

El viento
ha borrado los contornos

                                              Y un pájaro
picotea las cuerdas

El silencio                        Cada cual cree
se ocultaba                              vivir
al fondo                                     fuera de
del armario                             sí mismo
Cuando el hombre
                                   cesó de tocar
Dos alas temblorosas
                              cayeron de sus manos
