Romancing the Sound: Honoring Carlos Guastavino on the 20th Anniversary of his Death

(Times listed are New York / EDT)

Presented in collaboration with the Latin American Music Center at The Catholic University of America

I am a shameless lover of the folkloric expressions of our land and try to infuse my music with all the love I feel for my country.” Guastavino

Music, memories, and a book. Gustavo Ahualli, Director of the Latin American Music Center, talks with José Cueto and Nancy Roldán. The program features Guastavino’s first virtuosic piano piece and his final pieces for solo piano: Tierra Linda and Cantos Populares, performed by Nancy Roldán; and the composer’s two original works for violin and piano, Presencia No. 7 - Rosita Iglesias, and Llanura, featuring violinist José Miguel Cueto.
