Garcia Lorca

[Joel Bresler <jbresler...>]

Chevra,

Does anyone know if F. Garcia Lorca ever set Sephardic texts to his own 
music or arranged Sephardic songs? I had thought not, but the notes to a 
recently acquired CD say, "the wonderful text and music of 'The Romance de 
Don Boyso' are of Jewish-Spanish origin." I assume that "Don Boyso" is a 
stand-in for the well-known "Don Bueso" but imagine I could have gotten 
that wrong, too.

Judith or others care to jump in?

Shavua tov,

Joel
