Semblances Serie

The Semblanzas series invites you to experience a renewed musical experience from the perspective of the women who have composed, performed, and promoted it. Word and music combine in this series to contextualize, deepen, and approach music written by composers from different eras.

With a critical and rigorous approach, reflection and discovery are encouraged with a prior discussion, moderated by María Flores as a prelude to each concert.
