You don’t need to be particularly knowledgeable in flamenco to have heard the guitarist and composer José Miguel Carmona, the son of Pepe Habichuela and the bailaora (flamenco dancer) Amparo Niño, having been one of the key names in the flamenco fusion of the legendary Ketama, whom he joined at the tender age of 16. At the same time, he has also worked with big names in music, from Paco de Lucía and Jorge Pardo to Carles Benavent and Javier Colina. The latter is a double-bass player with a long career behind him collaborating with Tete Montoliu, Al Foster and Chucho Valdés and, as you’ll see in this concert, with a good many flamenco artists, including José Miguel Carmona, with whom he recorded the album De cerca. He’ll be performing at this concert, in collaboration with the percussionist José Manuel Ruiz Motos Bandolero and the guitarist Pepe Habichuela, a legend on the flamenco scene with a career spanning half a century and long history of collaboration with the genre’s big names.
