Los Veranos del Corral in Granada
One more year, and now its 12 years that the flamenco cycle Los Veranos del Corral is celebrated in Granada. Sixteen performances will delight flamenco aficionados from July 19 to August 12. An attractive event to enhance the summer in this Andalusian city. The goal of this edition is to join tradition with modernity to demonstrate the value of flamenco’s cultural heritage bid. To reach this goal, nearly 30 young and veteran artists will bring their art to the stage in 16 shows. The singer from Granada Marina Heredia is responsible for inaugurating this cycle. However David Lagos, Belén Maya, Juan Pinilla, Ana Morales, a prize winner at the last edition of the La Unión Festival and Jesús Méndez, a member of one of Jerez’s principal song legacies, will also be performing. |
However, the Veranos del Corral is not only a performance cycle to entertain enthusiasts. The organization will allow the artists to use the Corral as a space in which to film their performances so that they can use their work as audiovisual support in the future, making this an especially valuable opportunity for the performers. The workshops also add value to the event: flamenco dance classes given by Javier Latorre, Rafael Campallo, Juana Amaya and Rafaela Carrasco.
Granada is made the flamenco capital during the summer extolling a gypsy tradition as the echoes of voices and heels ring out across the Sacromonte. Dance and song make up the warm nights in the shadow of the Alhambra.
