“Ever since I was a kid I heard this song being played on our piano. My father performed it, as did my mother. I always tried to sing it, but it was difficult. I limited myself to simply listening to it and enjoying the effects that it produced inside of me. Every pore opened up when I listened to the song and my body got goosebumps when Mercedes Sosa took flight with her voice. ‘Alfonsina y El Mar’ is one of my all-time favorite songs.”
