About

Experience the tradition of cante jondo and Spanish classical and Flamenco guitar with two of today’s most celebrated young artists innovating the form. In Israel Fernandez and in Diego del Morao, two worlds coexist: the ancient and the contemporary.

Israel has managed to rejuvenate the cante of yesteryear, endowing it with new elements and making it appealing to fans today. Diego has the virtue, among many other things, of sounding classical and modern simultaneously.

There is something truly special about this young singer from Toledo, Spain, whose voice is impregnated with a vast spectrum of characteristics in which anguish, spirit, and the gypsy world coexist with tempo, sweetness and musicality. Israel represents the present of flamenco and is destined to make history in this art. Despite his youth, he has become a reference for fans of cante possessing enormous personality, perfect tuning, a devilish mastery of rhythm, and an inordinate enthusiasm for art representing his way of life.

Diego is one of the most recognized flamenco guitarists of the moment, nationally in Spain and internationally. Having be lauded by Paco de Lucia himself, Diego has a legion of followers who are in love with his personality and his passionate sense of rhythm. Diego has been able to create his own music and style without losing respect for the tradition of his roots; his guitar playing is one of the most recognizable among contemporary guitarists.
