The universal mysticism of San Juan de la Cruz transformed into an intimate performance of words that touch the soul
The universal mysticism of San Juan de la Cruz transformed into an intimate performance of words that touch the soul
Watched over by Velázquez’s Christ and caressed by the music of Mompou, Lluís Homar and Adriana Ozores recite the words of San Juan de la Cruz, mystic, poet and free man, with great emotion. He was highly critical of power, greed and the desire for abundance that governs the system, an even more valid message in the 21st century. Homar, now artistic director of the Compañía Nacional de Teatro Clásico, has chosen his poems and thinking to start the Alma y palabra cycle, to bring Spain’s classical literary heritage to the world in collaboration with the Instituto Cervantes .
