A Otro Lugar / To Another Place: The Poetry of Songs

Arteidolia Press 2024 For more than half a century, Bernardo Palombo has juggled and bent languages to unite, teach, and inspire generations across the Americas. The lyrics of Palombo transcend page and stage while moving toward a loving testament for the global village to live a radical life of kindness and harmony. Palombo guides us to imagine a place far beyond this current world. In tender, dexterous verse, Palombo's writing arranges an infinite circle that expands to make space and celebrate children, migrants, the forgotten, the Palomero, the earth, the water, each of us, the allness of the unknowable, and the beyond. These nuevapoemacanciones are heartwidening maps toward an existence of lightlove to birth a cosmos of memory, community, and assemble a future architecture of joy for others to follow. Read, sing, share this work. Join Palombo in the circle, he has already created room for you and me. - Anthony Cody A musician, poet, songwriter, artist, outspoken immigrants-integration advocate Bernardo Palombo, founder/director of the The Latin American Workshop, El Taller Latino Americano, achieved his first musical success when his song "Vendimiador" was recorded by the legendary Argentinean vocal group, Los Trovadores.
