The festival, now in its fifth year, is a collaboration with
Castila (Spanish language school of Albaicin, Granada), and
last year attracted 56 young musicians from major
conservatories and music programs around the world. They came
to Granada to specifically study and perform Spanish Song with
our distuingished faculty that includes, Teresa Berganza,
Miguel Zanetti, Jorge Robaina, Juan Antonio Alvarez Parejo,
Jose María Gallardo del Rey and Festival director, Nan Maro
Babakhanian . The Flamenco faculty , Juan Miguel Gimenez
Miranda and Antonio Vallejo are pioneers and advocates of
teaching the art to the younger generation in Granada, and
bring the best talent from Granada to perfom and teach with
them during the festival. The nightly programming aslo
features faculty recitals and participant concerts that mostly
free to the public, one of which was a special concert of
Latin American Songs performed by Anna Tonna Brown, Mezzo
Soprano, Francisco Roldan, Guitar and Alex Woo, Piano. The
festival culminates in four public masterclasses where Teresa
Berganza teaches participants chosen to present a vast and
varied selection of art song in Spanish - including some
Zarzuela! |
