Vocalist, instrumentalist and composer, Tomás Lozano, joins his artistry with that of Spanish poet and 1956 Nobel Prize in Literature, Juan Ramón Jiménez, creating a series of twenty pieces, both moving and intimate. What emerges is a musical journey through Jimeniano pantheistic landscapes in which Lozano captures the transcendence of Jimenez’ poetry in songs–Eterno Juan Ramón Jiménez, his latest album. Each piece weaves Lozano’s splendid voice and guitar with the resonant bass of a viola da gamba played by Erica Rubis and the fine embroidery of the flamenco guitar played by José Valle “Chuscales.” The performance is part of E460/660 Creativity and Collaboration, an anthropology course taught by Anya Royce, professor of anthropology, that examines the process of innovation across performing, visual, and literary arts, highlighting the relationship between individual expression and collaboration. Financial support has been provided by the School of Global and International Studies, the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, Latino Studies, the Department of Anthropology, and the College of Arts and Sciences. Other sponsors include Themester 2013 Connectedness: Networks in a Complex World and Foster International Living-Learning Center. The event is free and open to the public.
