"Memoria de los Sentidos"

With a tribute to the legendary guitarist Paco de Lucía, in “Memoria de los Sentidos” the multiple award-winning flamenco star and Grammy winner Vincente Amigo will perform live in the Festival Hall Erl for the first time. With guitar, bass, percussion, vocals and dance, the ensemble dives deep into the unique soundscape of flamenco, and enchants the audience with their phenomenal creativity and skills, paired with a high degree of sensitivity.

Called “the greatest guitarist alive” by Pat Metheny, Vicente Amigo impresses with unprecedented dexterity that is always in service of musical expression. Depth and expressiveness characterise his playing, which features a love of experimentation. Although he is clearly rooted in flamenco, at an early age Amigo explored the crossover possibilities of fusions and collaborations. He has worked, for example, with the Argentinean rock, folk and jazz musician Pedro Aznar, and the Algerian Raï star Cheb Khaled. Vicente Amigo’s playing and compositions impress with their fiery virtuosity, noteworthy charisma and the magical moment of the “duende”.

He will bring the legendary dancer Antonio Molina “El Choro” to Erl as part of his sextet. A fascinating experience for all fans of flamenco!
