Flamenco Express exists to do justice to this amazing music by choosing the best artists and allowing them total freedom of expression. The result is new art every night, delivered by an astonishing range of talent.
Now in its 30th glorious year, Flamenco Express returns with another spectacle of raw, heart-wrenching flamenco - featuring 'sizzling soloist' La Joaquina, guitar virtuoso Chris Clavo, the raw vocal power of flamenco custodian Antonio el Pola, and this month's guest star, Emilio Ochando , prize-winning choreographer hot from Madrid Festival and the Festival de Jerez.
An acknowledged international artist in constant demand, Emilio's company 3DEUNO is now in its fifth year, and he recently won first prize at the III International Dance Festival in Almería.
A festival of unbridled European roots music not to be missed.
El Pola
Known for over twenty years as a formidably talented singer dedicated
to the purest flamenco, Antonio El Pola has grown to fill the greatest
stages, performing with many legends of the art, such as La Chana,
Paco de Lucia, Juan El Camas, Concha Vargas, Antonio Moya and Juan
Castor. A true custodian of flamenco history - A regular partner of Titi.
"Unlike some of the splashy and slightly pretentious star-name shows at the festival flamenco, this performance is totally direct; immediate, involving and completely beguiling."
