Romance is in the air this month and there is no torch tune more intensely fiery than our boleros. Born in Cuba in the 19th century, nuestros boleros past and present are the finest distillations of longing, love requited and unrequited, passion and desire. These are songs for sipping, not for gulping on life’s stronger emotions. Enjoy this selection of contemporary boleros from the feminist to the psychedelic to new versions of the classics. The bolero is eterno!
