One day ago, the television again turned to the news on Miguel Bosé. There are no major or minor musicians. There is good music, music, ordinary music, bad music. To deny that musicians and singers from the area Miguel Bosé belongs to are part of popular culture would be to undermine intellectual reality. That is not the nature of a cultural exercise. As the years go by, every day I put more effort into understanding the power of popular music. Calderón de la Barca wrote in one of his famous comedies: “Music has always been the magnet of my feelings”.
It was nice to meet Miguel Bosé when he was at the height of his popular triumphs. One day I told Tomás Cuesta that it was necessary to include a periodical in adolescence, in ABC. Last week I thought to myself: “Miguel Bosé is the idol of Spanish teenagers. You should know him.”
Y indeed Miguel Bosé attended the en mi despacho de ABC dinner. Proven strength of ideas, remarkable culture. His behavior was much less than that of a star. We had an open conversation about the reality of cultural heritage and also about Spanish myths. He showed intelligence and, above all, simplicity.
He impressed me above all with his authenticity. This is what I said to Tomás Cuesta: “If in any article, in any information, there is someone with Miguel Bosé, who is respected by the law, but he tells me so that I can make sure that some of our associates defend him. I am careful that you do not misunderstand me.” Miguel Bosé is not just a star. He is a man of the cabal who reflects on what he does and on life in a disturbing and deep way.’
You were friends with your father, Luis Miguel Dominguín, and your mother, Lucía Bosé, a delicate and poised beauty forever established in modernity. Luis Miguel Dominguín was happy to meet Pablo Picassothe first universal artist of the XX century. He had extensive conversations with the toreador about bullfighting, what the “Hispanic homo” was all about, and what a great celebration of art and prowess.
Miguel Bosé descarnado su vida ante la piqueña pantalla. He did it with sincerity
In the story, Luis Miguel had what he knew, but he knew very well what he had, the deep meaning of the art that captivated Goya and Picasso and that embodied the poetry, the novella, the works of the 19th and 20th centuries.
to be sure We have talked about Miguel many times and he did not ask his father a single reserved word about the boy who had chosen the different path he had longed for. It is very well explained in his biographical book. He’ll probably show up. I say yes, it is announced on the cards and you cannot follow the citation, because in the period that the fact sends and that day professional duty instilled in me a compromise of what I discussed on various occasions, sometimes insufficient.
Victor Hugo wrote: “Music is the vapor of art. What follows is to poetry thought; what liquid is to liquid, what an ocean of clouds is to an ocean of trees. It is the indeterminacy of infinity.” Miguel Bosé descarnado su vida ante la piqueña pantalla. He did it with sincerity. It is important that he be recognized for his intellectual quality and achievement without facing a particularly competitive music world.
As I learned from my friend Amparo Muñoz, I learned about the period of danger and the bull in his life. Amparo helped her do everything she could to overcome public opinion and fear that never happened. Miguel Bosé stood up alone in the band and demonstrated an intelligence that he keeps intact and that dominates his life, all his work.
