“The New Minstrels” could be an ordinary poetry reading. Just another one that fills the district of the letters, known as the one of the muses as well, but this group, “Verse by Verse” of the UPUA, has a common denominator: the pleasure of poetry.
Presentation
From all the acceptations found for minstrel, we choose the one of troubadour, poet; being considered this way many of our contemporary singer-songwriters. If each person is a nation, just like Joyce says in his Ulysses, each of these new minstrels, with more or less converging paths, ideals, dreams, hopes, struggles, can make the holly grow and rule the blackbird, since it signs to what is human. It could be an ordinary poetry reading. Just another one that fills the district of the letters, known as the one of the muses as well, but this group, “Verse by Verse” of the UPUA, has a common denominator: the pleasure of poetry.
Poetry that, from a kaleidoscope of emotions, from chronological heterogeneity, from diverse personalities, from life lessons, different social commitments and denunciations, from human and universal sensations, will attempt to deliver the sounds of the soul so all of us can be part of those declarations of hope, heartfelt kisses, needs of meeting, ignored grazes, longed glances, shared tears, and a long etc., with which all of you are already familiar since every one of us is made out of the substance as dreams.
