Researchers of the University of Oviedo trace and recover the lyrical heritage of the Spanish 19th Century

What is the sound of the Spanish 19th Century, a historically convoluted and unknown time from a musical point of view. Tracing and recovering the soundtrack of the times has been the challenge faced by a group of researchers from the the University of Oviedo for two decades to recover the works of Spanish composers of the 19th Century. The team, led by professor María Encina Cortizo Rodríguez, and the tenured professor Ramón Sobrino from the Department of History of Arts and Musicology, has been in charge of the edition, interpretation and recording of dozens of works by Spanish authors that, in many cases, had not been played in any theater since their debut more than one hundred years ago.
