The Experience

I felt a weird mix of nerves and excitement walking up to the Palau de la Música Catalana — it’s one of those places that makes you straighten your back a little, you know? The outside is all mosaic and curves, but inside, that stained glass ceiling just glows. We shuffled into our seats (I nearly tripped over someone’s bag), and then the lights dipped. Suddenly, three guitarists were right there in front of us, fingers flying. My friend nudged me when they started playing something by Manuel de Falla — she recognized it before I did.

It wasn’t just music; there was this hush in the room, except for the tap of shoes as Carolina Morgado and José Manuel Álvarez took the stage. Their flamenco was sharp and fast, but then sometimes they’d pause so long you could hear someone exhale behind you. The percussionist, Lucas Balbo, kept sneaking in these little flourishes — I almost missed them until our guide whispered about his background with Paco de Lucía’s crew. There was a moment when everyone just sat still after a García Lorca piece, like nobody wanted to move yet.

Honestly, I didn’t expect to get emotional at a guitar show. But something about hearing those Spanish and flamenco guitars together — especially in that hall — just got under my skin. Li laughed when I tried to say “palmas” properly (I definitely butchered it). Afterward we spilled out onto the street blinking at the city lights, still sort of caught up in it all. If you’re even half-curious about flamenco or Spanish guitar, this show at Palau de la Música is… well, it lingers with you.
