The legendary flamenco Singer Carmen Linares, awarded with the prestigious Premio Princessa de Asturias 2022 and with the Latin Grammy 2023, sings in honor of Paco de Lucía in an unforgettable night together with Maria Hein’s collaboration.
The Festival Paco de Lucía Mallorca pays tribute to Carmen de Linares, who has become an inspiration for the next generations of female artists after her forty years of successful career. Maria Hein is going to participate as guest artist representing the talent of the Balearic new generations. This festival puts faith in the young talents with innovative, refreshing proposals that depict through music the present society and the way of living of these new generations, with languages that are supported on tradition, but transforming the codes of representation without overlooking their audience and generating debate and reflection.
Carmen Linares offers a concert in honor of Paco de Lucía, exploring flamenco music, Andalusian folk, and poetry. A show full of light, sensitiveness, tears, memory, color, and truth. The light of the bays of Cadiz, the temples in Seville, the sky of Málaga, and the olive groves of Jaen. The dramatic and folkloric essence of the verses by Federico García Lorca, Miguel Hernández, Rafael Alberti, and Juan Ramón Jiménez. The memory present in the music in honor of Paco de Lucía, Enrique Morente, and Mercedes Sosa.
The truth in Camen Linares’ unique voice, the folk singing that scratches and caresses us at the same time. The distinguished flamenco singer is the essential artist to comprehend the Spanish musical culture.
