Miró Henry Sobrer - Two Of Swords (CD)

Release Date: 07/15/22

Miró Henry Sobrer's album, Two of Swords, recounts his struggle to find peace amidst conflicted feelings and thoughts after his father's death in 2015

Miró Henry Sobrer's album, Two of Swords, dedicated to his Catalan father
Josep (Pep) Miquel Sobrer (1944-2014), is an ode to his heritage and also the
conflicting feelings he felt while grieving his father's loss.
His father, an accomplished writer, translator, and scholar of Spanish and
Catalan literature, wrote his own tarot book in a poetic format. The album centers
around Josep's text version of the Two of Swords tarot card.
The album features plentiful spoken poetry: the prose-poem corresponding to
this card from Josep's tarot book, and some sonnets by another Catalan poet Josep
Janés i Olivé, whose poems accompany my twisted-arrangement of a song cycle by the
renowned Catalan composer Frederic Mompou.
