CARMEN LINARES: ENSAYO FLAMENCO 2012

 

Rehearsal is a time that gives rise to unique, unrepeatable musical moments. The voice and the instruments in a rehearsal room warm up until they manage to play the desired note: each element gradually takes its place in an inexorable crescendo. This is the starting point of the new stage project which the singer will premiere in Suma Flamenca 2011, Carmen Linares: Ensayo flamenco 2012, from the intimacy of the piano to the jonda intensity of her voice and the guitar.

In Ensayo flamenco 2012 Carmen Linares, accompanied by piano, guitars and percussion, interprets verses by contemporary Spanish poets such as Valente, Ortiz Nuevo and Miguel Hernández among others. One of those moments of committed solitude is achieved with Se equivocó la paloma, Alberti’s most emblematic poem, in which piano and voice join together in an emotive flamenco dialogue.

Ensayo flamenco 2012 is a spectacle designed so as to share with the public the intimacy of a poem by Juan Ramón Jiménez and the expressive emotion of Lorquean granaínas.

Carmen once again reinvents herself with songs that she has carried within her since she began her professional career, eternal melodies with lyrics by the above mentioned authors. Carmen’s voice is poetry, and she can mature it without altering its content.

Carmen Linares and her musicians open their doors to us, to reveal the intimacy of a poetry and song rehearsal. You are invited.
