In this Musical Afternoon, we'll discover the origins of the habanera, its evolution, and its cultural and musical connections. We'll explore how this genre, imbued with nostalgia, passion, and maritime evocations, has inspired everything from popular songs to great operatic works.

And we will also try to answer questions such as: why does a habanera move us? What is it about its rhythm, melody, and harmony that awakens such particular feelings? From the perspectives of music and neuroscience, we will try to unravel the keys to its emotional power.

Talk by Manuela del Caño
