With The Ghosts of Alhambra, George Crumb returns once again to his favorite poet, Federico Garc?\\xa1a Lorca. The texts for The Ghosts of Alhambra come from Poema del cante jondo, much of which Lorca wrote in reaction to the commercialized flamenco he experienced in contemporary Andalusia. Crumb's settings are alternately dark, dramatic and childlike in their directness and simplicity. The spectacular tapestry that is Crumb's Voices from a Forgotten World presents a huge variety of American song from diverse sources. Native American songs (Navajo and Ojibwa) bump up against 17th century ballads and folk songs from various corners of the nation. The huge percussion orchestra provides one of Crumb's most colourful scores in a 46 minute composition that is shattering in its cumulative emotional impact.\u003cp\u003eThe Ghosts of Alhambra - Various Performers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVoices from a Forgotten World, (American Songbook V) - Various Performers\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55148275794305,"sku":"764967","price":18.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51xy1TCbofL._SL1500_151a9be6-678d-4ffc-a407-a40ea1cb7677.jpg?v=1767820500","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/764967-1","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
