Bach to Flamenco
Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Tonight we highlight Spanish pianist Miriam Mendez and her album Bach por Flamenco. The combination of J. S. Bach and Flamenco channels her classical training and her cultural traditions through the emotion that stems from both styles of music. The pieces, she says, are “a new dimension in which, by means of a perfect assembly, two universal, radically different cultures are united.” Also music from Maurice Ravel and David Lang.
