Cycle of literary conversations with musical illustrations, conducted by Josep Pujol, doctor of musicology, writer and professor at Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya.
Song: rock-paper-scissors
In this new edition of the cycle that combines music and literature in the Museum, we will approach poetry in its sung version. The song conveys us and popularizes the verses of the poets, educates us sentimentally and politically, frees us the muscle of the tongue. Conscious of so much potential, against this great weapon of rock and paper, the scissors of the censorship have tried to stop it and degrade it. We will invite poets, protagonists and scholars of the song to speak and to sing it.
