Siempre Flamenco's Festival de Cante
This event has passed.
The 18th edition of Siempre Flamenco's Festival de Cante brings the heart and artistry of flamenco to The Arsht Center, August 22-25. The festival centers on Cante Flamenco, a powerful vocal tradition rooted in Spanish history with diverse influences, rarely performed outside of Spain.
The event kicks off with a guitar showcase, Canta la Guitarra, on August 22. This concert features the individual and collaborative mastery of flamenco guitar legends Paco Cepero, Paco Fonta and José Cortés "Panzekito," who will also showcase their vocal talents.
From August 23 to 25, the festival's main performances take center stage. A stellar ensemble of flamenco virtuosos will grace the stage, including acclaimed singers Macarena de Jerez, José Campos "Morenito Hijo" and Samuel Serrano. The lineup is further bolstered by guitarist José Cortés "Panzekito," rising dance star José Jiménez "El Bocadillo" and legendary flamenco guitarist Paco Cepero. A special appearance by Siempre Flamenco's founders, Paco and Celia Fonta, completes this impressive gathering.
