Nuit flamenca à la Philharmonie de Paris Rafael Riqueni – José María Gallardo del Rey – Tomatito
May 2024
There are three guitarists perpetuating the flamenco tradition, each in their own personal vein. Considered one of the virtuosos of the genre, Rafael Riqueni, a native of the legendary Triana district, is a pure Sevillian. José María Gallardo del Rey embodies a more progressive vision, often in association with choreographers, in this case Ana Morales, a dancer with some of the greatest names (Andrés Marín, Javier Barón), whose style has managed to free itself from codes in a pure and sensual movement. José Fernández Torres, alias Tomatito, honours the art of flamenco from its gypsy roots, enriching it with jazz influences. Three approaches, three aesthetes of the guitar, all united by a common love.
