Spanish Baroque

{"title":"Spanish Baroque","description":"\u003Cp\u003ELeonardo Garc\u00eda-Alarc\u00f3n presents an in-depth lecture on Spanish Baroque and its wide influence beyond Europe. He explores its roots in 16th-century polyphony linked to the Roman tradition and traces how it transformed during the conquest of the Americas. The talk examines the development of a distinctive, hybrid musical language born from encounters between European forms and local traditions, addressing adaptation to vernaculars, cross-cultural exchanges and new practices. It reveals how inherited forms were reshaped in dynamic, often tension-filled contexts.\u003C\/p\u003E","start_date":"2027-01-29","end_date":"2027-01-29","date":"Friday 29 January, 18:00","timings":[{"timing_start_date":"20270129T170000Z","timing_end_date":"20270129T180000Z"}]}
