Antonia Jiménez & Inma La Carbonera are set to perform on Saturday, March 9, 2024, at 8:00pm at Roulette in New York City
This engaging program in this year’s edition of the celebrated Flamenco Festival New York features Inma La Carbonera, a soulful vocalist from Seville in a rare New York appearance, and Antonia Jiménez, the most important name among Spanish female guitarists and composers.
La Carbonera has worked alongside such leading flamenco artists as Antonio Canales, Manuela Carrasco and Olga Pericet and collaborated with the Andanzas dance company. Jiménez, born in El Puerto de Santa Maria, Cadiz, studied with masters Manolo Sanlucar, Gerardo Núñez and Rafael Riqueni and appeared with vocalist Carmen Linares, and dancers Belen Maya, Manuel Liñán and Rocio Molina, among others. In their concert, A Gaya, Jiménez has set to music verses from Lorca and various female Spanish poets that had never been sung before in flamenco. Their performance pays tribute to the strength of women and the importance of Mother Earth.
Roulette is located at 509 Atlantic Avenue at 3rd Avenue, Downtown Brooklyn, 917-267-0363.
