The year 2022 sees the 120th anniversary of the birth of Bilbao-born poet Ángela Figuera Aymerich, and the 115th anniversary of the birth of poet Carmen Conde, born in Cartagena. Part of the ‘Generation of ’27’, these two poets were advocates for women’s rights in society and were close friends. This CD is a homage to them.
This project would not have been possible without the generous participation of all of the composers who have written songs especially for this recording, and of Matilde Salvador and Ángeles López Artiga, whose existing compositions appear alongside them.
