Music after Jorge Luis Borges 

The great Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges has always had a particular fascination with composers from different parts of the world. In this case, we will feature works based on Borges’ narrations by composers such as Mario Lavista (Mexico), Diego Vega (Colombia) and Enric Riu (Catalonia/Spain). Also, in 1965 Astor Piazzolla and Jorge Luis Borges released a historical LP with the title El Tango in which the champion of New Tango put music to Borges’ poetry. A selection of this work will be also featured during the program.
