“Blues in Black on White” with journalist and writer Manuel L\u00f3pez Poy (lecture in Spanish)<\/strong>
Since J\u00facar publishing house translated Philippe Bas-Rab\u00e9rin’s work “Le blues moderne” in 1963, and Coru\u00f1a-born journalist Nonito Pereira published “En la cresta de la m\u00fasica. Del blues hasta el rock” in 1976 which is considered the first homegrown work on blues, the literary landscape devoted to the genre remained an absolute wasteland until the 21st century.Over the last 20 years, this situation has completely reversed, and now at least four or five books are published each year.
\nThis session offers a way to approach blues culture through the lens of the publishing world.
Musical performance:<\/em> Hoochie Coochie Sonia (vocals), Llu\u00eds Souto (harmonica), Sergio Giunta (guitar).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Wednesday, June 10th, 7:00 PM<\/strong>
“Blues and Drawing” with illustrator, cartoonist, and pianist August Tharrats<\/strong>

A personal insight into these artistic disciplines and their interrelation.
Musical performance:<\/em> Marian Barahona (vocals) and Marc Ferrer (piano)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Wednesday, June 17th, 7:00 PM<\/strong>
“The 1960s: The British Blues Explosion” with musician, writer, and translator Ricard Gil<\/strong>
A lecture on the origins, history, and significance of the blues explosion in the United Kingdom during the first half of the 1960s. An avalanche of young musicians, centered in London, adopted African-American music as a means of expression, creating an underground scene that moved thousands of people. In doing so, they revived the careers of many bluesmen who were struggling and forgotten in their own country, laying the foundations for the most popular rock bands of the following decade.
Musical performance:<\/em> Nuria Almaz\u00e1n (vocals), Pep Rius (guitar), and Tota Blues (harmonica).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Hope to see you there.<\/div>\n
