THE VOICE OF FLAMENCO at Parabola Arts

  • Parabola Arts Centre Parabola Road Cheltenham GL50 3AA United Kingdom (map)

THE VOICE OF FLAMENCO features El Cañejo de Barbate, a fisherman and one of the hottest contemporary Flamenco singers around.

The current Flamenco scene does not get more authentic than this!

El Cañejo de Barbate, true to his roots, performs in many local bars and Peñas around Cadiz during summer, working earlier in the day at sea. His popularity has soared and during the winter now sings around the globe, having learnt his craft at his grandmother's knee in a family where Flamenco was a way of life. El Cañejo has already performed with the Spanish National Dance company and the Spanish National Orchestra and recorded 2 CDs.

His voice has an extraordinary quality and is joined by the distinctive sound of Angeles Rivera, a fresh, contemporary female artist from Cadiz, along with the colourful passionate dance of Adrian Brenes and Nazaret Oliva, whilst the cool, unflustered Jaime de la Isla from San Fernando, consistently astounds on Flamenco guitar.

Tapas and vino will be available before the performance and during the interval.
