A lecture titled Studying Lorca’s Little Viennese Waltz will be held on 28 October 2026 at the University of Edinburgh. Dr. Raquel Martínez Martín will discuss the musical afterlife of Federico García Lorca's poem and its cultural significance.
The Cervantes Chair at Edinburgh is delighted to announce a series of three events aimed at marking the forthcoming centenary of the Generation of 1927 and the 90 years that have elapsed since the assassination of Federico García Lorca in particular. On Wednesday, 28 October, Dr. Raquel Martínez Martín will explore the musical afterlife of Federico García Lorca's poem "Little Viennese Waltz" ("Pequeño vals vienés") across time. Federico García Lorca’s poetry carries music at its core. Through the afterlife of the poem "Little Viennese Waltz" (Poet in New York, 1940), poetry, song, historical memory and political resistance come together to reveal how Lorca's work continues to take shape in sound across time. The lecture traces this journey from Lorca's own musical imagination to the voices that have reinterpreted his work for later generations.
