Flamenco once again pays its respects to Chano Lobato. Following the tribute he received in March last year at Seville's Teatro de la Maestranza, the veteran vocalist is lauded at the forty-seventh edition of the Festival Flamenco de La Unión. As well as the gala evening dedicated to the artist from Cadiz, from 2nd to 11th August there'll be a program of performances by bailaores, cantaores and guitarists including Sara Baras, José Mercé and Gerardo Núñez. The four last days are dedicated to the contest, in which promising newcomers will battle once again for the ‘Lámpara Minera’ award.
