La canción en el tiempo y la voz de Luis Alberto Spinetta

Abstract

It seems it takes a special provision to read poetry, for example, or to be interested in painting or to enjoy the theater, or even certain forms of music, but certainly not for the song. This is an area of immediate experience with which we interact directly, no need to do courses (or go to conferences) to listen to songs. There is something so striking in the natural way we relate to the song. There is a hunger that seems innate; come, as it were, with the gene of the song. I call this article "The song at the time," and by that I mean the historical time, but also the mythical time, personal time for each of us and the time of each song, an art form which can short call, short duration. In the first part, then I will talk about some aspects of the song in these different times, and in the second I will refer to a particular artist, I personally admire, which is Argentina's Luis Alberto Spinetta.
