Early Bird Registration Deadline Coming Up — January 8

Save on Tuition for the Barcelona Festival of Song

Dear Subscriber First Name,

As a new year begins, we pause to wish you a happy and meaningful New Year from all of us at the Barcelona Festival of Song.

The beginning of a year invites reflection, but also intention. It is a moment to ask ourselves how we wish to grow, what kind of artist we want to become, and which paths are ready to be taken with more clarity and courage. Artistic journeys are built slowly—through curiosity, commitment, and the willingness to be transformed by what we study, sing, and share.

For over two decades, the Barcelona Festival of Song has been a space for that kind of transformation: a place where singers and collaborative pianists come together to deepen their connection to Latin American and Iberian art song, to language, poetry, and cultural context, and to one another.

As you begin to plan for 2026, we would like to gently remind you that the Early Bird application deadline for the Barcelona Festival of Song is January 8.

Each summer in Barcelona, a small group of selected singers and collaborative pianists gathers for an immersive experience dedicated to the study and performance of art song in Spanish, Catalan, and Portuguese. Through master classes, lectures, and performances led by internationally recognized artists and scholars, participants engage deeply with repertoire that speaks of identity, history, and living traditions.

If the Barcelona Festival of Song has been part of your artistic horizon, this may be a beautiful moment to take that next step—one rooted in growth, intention, and discovery.

We wish you a year filled with music, inspiration, and the courage to follow what truly resonates with you.

A New Year Listening Gift

To begin the year, I’d like to share a small gift: a Spotify playlist bringing together 11 albums of Latin American and Iberian art song recorded over the years, featuring songs in Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, Quechua, Nahuatl, and Aymara.

These recordings invite attentive listening—where voice, language, and identity meet—and offer a quiet way to start the year grounded in sound, memory, and care.
