Description

Our Spanish Songs sessions celebrate the golden age of Latin romance – the era when boleros drifted out of open windows, dance halls glowed softly in the evening heat, and love was always just a little dramatic. In this session we’ll explore classics such as Bésame Mucho and Quizás, Quizás, Quizás – songs born not in Spain but in Mexico and Cuba, yet adored across the entire Spanish‑speaking world. Expect longing, hesitation, passion and a touch of melodrama as we unpack the stories behind the lyrics and the cultural worlds they evoke. You may even find yourself swaying along before you realise it. Come along! Suitable for all, but especially delightful for lovers of Spanish‑language music and culture, with some language knowledge.

Description

Italy has a fine tradition of cantautori, who flourished particularly in the mid to late 20th century.  Some of us can still remember when the originals came out!  Join us for either or both of these sessions to be charmed by the lyrics of iconic singers such as Fabrizio de Andre and Lucio Battisti.  You will be transported to a land of bruschette, vino, sole ed amore while never leaving Winchester.  Each of these 2 sessions (Italian Songs 1 & 2) will introduce 3 classic songs – and we might even get you singing along!  Come to either or both – sessions are independent of each other, so you don’t need to have attended the previous one!  Suitable for all but will be appreciated most by lovers of all things Italian, with some language knowledge.
Original price was: £24.00.

Reuben, a languages student at Oxford, is an Instagram languages sensation, with 123k followers of his page @reubenlingo, which features not only posts about the various languages he speaks to varying degrees (10 of them!) but also observations on linguistics, which can be described simply as the study of how languages work.  Reuben is not an “influencer” but just someone who loves and is fascinated by languages – so he is on the same wavelength as everyone at LA!  We are delighted to welcome Reuben to Winchester!

Description

We are often asked if Latin American Spanish is the same as Spanish Spanish (Castellano).  The answer is more complicated, in fact!  Across South and Central America there are different varieties of Spanish, just as English varies across the US and in other countries where it is a first or official language.  We will introduce you to some of the varieties, with audio.

Description

This session is designed to increase your fluency, by introducing a series of discussion points around topics.  You will develop your vocabulary range both in terms of individual words and expressions.  You will practise structures and grammatical elements in context.  Lots of fun, and you will increase your confidence! The idea is to have you conversing and debating for all of the class. We feel the key skills to master (being of most interest to the majority of our learners) are speaking and listening, so that you can communicate when travelling.  Listening is probably the harder of these, as you may make yourself understood but understanding what comes back can be demanding, as how people phrase responses is unpredictable!

Our French Songs sessions will unashamedly take you back to the days when France was the pinnacle of romance, the smoke of Gauloise cigarettes hung permanently in the air and Brigitte Bardot (RIP) was more of a sex symbol than a glorified zoo-keeper!  Each of these 2 sessions (French Songs 1 & 2) will introduce 3 classic French songs by singers such as Edith Piaf.  You will not regret joining us (did you see how we did that?).  Come to either or both – the sessions will be indepent of each other and you don’t need to have attended the previous one!  Suitable for all but will be appreciated most by lovers of all things French, with some language knowledge.

No need for a description of this session, really, except to say that instead of pretty pictures of cheese on a screen, we will provide you with nuggets of REAL CHEESE!  The object is for you to identify said cheese.  We will not blindfolding you, so there will be visual clues (tip – mozzarella does not come in a blue version).  Cheese is traditionally paired with wine so, before you ask, yes, there will be wine included!
