This event will showcase the fascinating origins and history of The Hispanic Society of Scotland (delivered in English) by Eddie Mullen; and will be followed by a talk on Federico García Lorca's poem "Little Viennese Waltz" (delivered in Spanish) by Dr Raquel Martínez Martín (University of Strathclyde). 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.
