	David Grayson on Lorca: Issue Six - The Cortland Review
		Lorca begins to describe Duende by borrowing Goethe’s allusion to the "mysterious power which everyone senses and no philosopher explains." The Duende is a force that is irrational and intuitive; spiritually connected to the earth and pantheistic; and – quintessentially Spanish – aware of death.
		Lorca writes that commercial flamenco "suggests immoral things, the tavern, the late-night orgy, the dance floors of flamenco cafés, ridiculous whining – in short, all that is ‘typically Spanish!’." It is difficult to know what to make of Lorca’s distinction.
		Lorca speaks of bullfighting not as a sport, but as an art form: a way of meditating (as art often is).

		Darfo's, Neruda's, and Lorca's poetics exist within a modernist frame--a frame, in Oscar Montero's words, "nurtured on the one hand by the decadent, and often implicitly homoerotic literatures of Europe and North America, and fueled on the other by the none too subtle homophobia of various discourses of national affirmation" (Montero, 92).

		Not surprisingly, Lorca's poet-narrator of "Ode to Walt Whitman" (as mentioned earlier, the poem reworked during the Cuban hiatus) slips and slides in and out of states of repulsion and celebration of same-sex encounters--a friction caught up in colonialist discourse as the narrator moves between nations.

		The sole performer (and co-creator) Dito van Reigersberg—a Lorca near-look-alike—invents a compelling portrayal of the writer and his year in New York (from which he produced the famous cycle of poetry), combining movement, period music, poetic language and conversations—real and imagined—with historical figures.
		But add the second and third sections—Trip to the Moon, which follows Lorca's theater troupe La Barraca, and The Impossible Play, which recreates the days before his murder by the fascists—along with their sets and performers, and the skimpy structure of this "biographical fantasia" begins to fall apart.
		In another—a tribute to Lorca's (and our own) childlike fascination with the cosmos—a performer watches a wall-size film of the moon from a swing, her back to us, a tricycle she rode earlier hanging from one side as ballast.

		His murder by the Nationalists at the start of the Spanish civil war brought sudden international fame, accompanied by an excess of political rhetoric which led a later generation to question his merits; after the inevitable slump, his reputation has recovered (largely with a shift in interest to the less obvious works).
		Lorca's technical experimentation (which has affinities with innovators as dissimilar as PIRANDELLO and BRECHT) was immensely versatile, and he had a superb sense for stage-effects to reinforce the web of his recurrent imagery.

	Filmtracks: The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca (Mark McKenzie)
		As with his other scores, McKenzie's music for The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca is lush with theme, with never more than a few minutes passing before a statement of one of the themes --as integrated as that may be-- is utilized.
		In the tracks "Main Title," "Blood of a Poet," "Death Calling" and "Lorca's Elegy," Segura provides a distinct flavor for the score of The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca --the sound of three flamenco singers is actually the one performance tracked three times (which is a technique that McKenzie uses masterfully in his scores).
		"Lorca's theme" (first heard about 1:45 into the Overture, and then in the Main Title) is, I think, my favorite theme of the score.
