Flamenco-world.com, March 2008

Flamenco Ciutat Vella 2008 will have vocals as its star. ‘Carama’, which is the title of this fifteenth edition, refers to the Catalan term ‘carameles’, candies to soften the chest. Fernando Terremoto, El Torta, El Pele and Montse Cortés are the four voices chosen to sweeten up the bill. But each of them will share the stage with a bailaora: La Faraona, Hiniesta Cortés, Rafaela Carrasco and Carmen Cortés. Moreover, there will be room for such first-rate guitarists as Cañizares, José Antonio Rodríguez and Agustín Carbonell ‘El Bola’, without forgetting rumba catalana groups and conferences. The event is from May 20th to 25th, 2008 at Barcelona’s Centro de Cultura Contemporánea (CCCB), where at the same time the first flamenco audiovisual contest P’Alucine 2008 will take place.
