Congreso Internacional de Flamenco de Cantes Mineros
Mineros Sings
Por su parte, el alcalde de La Unión, Francisco Bernabé, explicó que este primer congreso sobre cantes mineros surgió a raíz de la incoación del expediente de los cantes mineros para su declaración como Bien de Interés Cultural (BIC) de carácter inmaterial.
Así, a través de tres jornadas se analizará, desde una perspectiva teórico-práctica, el origen, formación y evolución de estos cantes y su vinculación con el Festival Internacional del Cante de las Minas.
Al mismo tiempo, Bernabé destacó del congreso que además del contenido de la programación puramente académica, con conferencias, mesas redondas y charlas en la que participarán tanto flamencólogos, profesores de universidad y críticos como Miguel Ángel López, Francisco José Ródenas y José Gelardo, entre otros, tendrá un "indudable carácter interactivo".
De esta manera, adelantó, "se celebrarán recitales flamencos con el cantaor Miguel Poveda, las ganadoras de la Lámpara Minera, también proyecciones audiovisuales, además de visitas a los lugares más emblemáticos La Unión como es el Parque Minero de la que forma parte la Mina Agrupa Vicenta".
Sobre la conferencia de clausura del congreso, el alcalde de La Unión destacó que próximamente se conocerá el nombre de la persona, pero adelantó que "estará en consonancia de los ponentes que van a intervenir".

The counsellor of Culture and Tourism, Pedro Alberto Cruz, presented today the Flamenco International I Congress about the Mineros Sing, which will be celebrated in the municipality of La Union from June 2 to June 4. It is about the first activity of the Mines Sing Foundation on the occasion of the celebration of the Festival golden wedding, this year.

The aim of this event is that The Union “turns already not only into a place of celebration of Flamenco, but of reflection on", Cruz said and added that with the congress, in which the principal specialists should take part, “we are looking for creating a strong context for the festival which would go on during all the year”.

Regarding the “Mineros” Sings, which are the biggest aim of the congress, the holder of Culture and Tourism emphasized the singularity that " differentiates them regarding the other forms of flamenco, the fact is they have been conceived all along the history at the same time with the development of the mines, and it’s the reason why nowadays, it’s of the most exceptional sing inside flamenco".

That’s why The Region of Murcia “campaigns Andalusia and Extremadure for the inclusion of Flamenco in the Unesco Humanity immaterial Culture patrimony list” reminded.

Will you see Paco de Lucía in concert this summer?

While we wait for the release of his new album, which will probably be available in early summer, Paco de Lucía's new tour has begun. A tour that is still adding dates and cities to the already impressive list of performance locations.

On this occasion, the maestro has surrounded himself with Niño Josele in order to incorporate new and interesting additions, the singer from Almeria Cristo Heredia, and the singer from Granada (from Motril) David de Jacoba, whose major stage debut was with the Joven Generación (Young Generation) project in May 2008. Farru is the dancer on this tour, which will include musicians that have toured with Paco in the past, such as Antonio Serrano (harmonica), Alain Pérez (bass) and Piraña (percussion).

Although dates still have to be confirmed, here's the schedule that has been confirmed up to now:
