Fri 4 Jul Tomatito
9:30pm at Palau de la Música Catalana (Palau de la Música, 4-6)18 a 45 Euros Buy tickets
“Tomatito”, born in Almería, one of the best-known performers of the “toque gitano” today. His style is rhythmic and elegant, and characterized above all by his absolute mastery of the “compas”. He not only has an innate sense of rhythm but the compás is engraved on his subconscious with the result that he plays it without having to think twice. And, paradoxically, those “toques” where he is most at home – the “bulería”, the flamenco “tangos” or the “bulería por soleá” – are precisely the most demanding for “tocaores” and “cantaores” alike.

Rosario Flores is a two-time Latin Grammy Award-winning Spanish singer and actress. She was born in Madrid, Spain as the daughter of Antonio González “El Pescaílla” and Lola Flores.
