As purist that I am (if anyone call it that), certainly better to say fond of traditional flamenco, like the concert Dorantes me I could not lose. If only for my very great love of flamenco families of Pinini and Perrate. Moreover, these two families I consider them in the history of flamenco and the best example of the greatest personalities. I mean, are a family almost alone among Lebrija and Utrera and has many different personalities to flamenco! I say this with conviction and loud and clear: It's amazing!
Speaking of other artists today, one lives in Madrid, another in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bone in Seville ... But sound "equal", go through the same way ... And as I write above: the Pinini, Perrate ... almost a family, the same place, same birth ... And I can only sigh deeply, do another olé of excitement and wonder: How is this possible?
Why Dorantes went to the concert? Many of his family background have this reputation of leading artists, but no doubt that Dorantes became a great artist, not by them, on its own merits. Dorantes for the history of flamenco has only increased the number of great artists who come from these families. Now I could not tell exactly whether it is more from Pinini Peña by his surname, or if the Perrate by his grandmother Maria La Perrata. I think it is so important. The most important thing is that Dorantes became a leading artist in his own art, presented with the stage name Dorantes and not otherwise.
information for your concert in Prague has moved me greatly. For me was really a big surprise. How much I appreciate the organizers who brought him here, in our country. On the other hand made me a little sad that the organizer of the Prague performance was the world of jazz. This happened as we arrived in flamenco world news very late, only a week before the concert. It was in a small theater and just as the theater was filled, only three quarters. I think the name of this artist is not as well known here in the jazz world and the world of flamenco. Also do not forget that we are not France or Japan and that our world of flamenco is a very small world. I would add that knowledge of the flamenco are always just on principle. Also that day, May 6, 2011, was on TV a very important hockey game. Since Spain is a country of football, ours is ice hockey.
Dorantes with his group should not worry much less not so many people came to the theater, because this event had absolutely nothing to do with his qualities or his art as with those other reasons. And we that we have is we have rewarded him well. He received a round of applause as if the theater would have been really full. I received not only after the concert, but often also for the unique compositions, which recognized such Orobroy and Portraits of a river.
At this time I smile, because even though it was his first performance in Prague and could interpret for us the old works without any problem, I also wanted to present here one of its new programs, new compositions, but Orobroy is a composition of nearly fifteen years old. It may be that it was up to my desire, I told him before the concert, so I'd like to hear your Orobroy live ... I did really well. Of course he did far more good for nothing, touched. While here without children, without a violin, Orobroy lost none of its beauty. Is your wonderful work ever lose any of your beauty, charm ... The piano is and will always Dorantes very sensitive, much soul ...
Also, for me Dorantes is one of the few in the current flamenco can afford to mergers, mixing flamenco with other genres. One of the few artists who I trust, just like his uncle Lebrijano because I know that Dorantes takes flamenco in their blood, and by his extended family is well aware of traditional flamenco, its base, has throughout your skin, surrounded by flamenco was born of right. Yes, I trust mergers. I know his music not only for their own records, but also the records of other artists with whom he has collaborated, such as Pele, Esperanza Fernández, El Lebrijano, or the DVD with a magnificent "Pasión y Ley" Antonio El Pipa ... And others.
The success of this concert in Prague was not only great performance by the master of Dorantes. His two companions, percussionist Tete Peña, his cousin, and Yelsi Heredia, bassist, contributed to this success with fantastic performances, making the three a real set of art and perfection.
flamenco world Czechs were not going to the concert of Dorantes can now only be a great pity, because they have lost a performer's first class at the highest level. That level that we saw in our country always so few flamenco artists.
And we who have seen the concert, we are now just happy and very enthusiastic, with many thanks to the organizer, who had that idea to invite significant Dorantes, the great master of flamenco piano.
