Once again this year, at the Baluarte de la Candelaria in Cádiz,
with the beginning of summer comes a complete program of dance, singing
and guitar of the highest quality. With a clearly traditional slant, but
with plenty of room for young hopefuls, the lengthy festival, because
this is a true festival in every sense of the word, is scheduled to take
place from July 17th to August 28th, seven shows for seven Thursdays.
The explosive singer showman Capullo de Jerez, opens the first Thursday
in a program that also includes dancer Andrés Peña. The following week,
Ricardo Losada “El Yunque” from Madrid, is the veteran singer who tops
the bill in a program that is rounded out with two promising young singers,
Rubito de Pará hijo, and Antonio Reyes. The last day of July, the voices
of Fernando Terremoto, Luis el Zambo and el Niño de la Fragua, the group
of Diego de la Margara and the guitars of Alfredo Lagos, Domingo Rubichi
and José Ignacio Franco with fill the air with their powerful sounds.
Another major Jerez singer, Manuel Moneo shares a more diverse program
the following week with Segundo Falcón and young Paco del Pozo, and the
guitars of Antonio Carrión and Paco Jarana.
On August 14th, Lebrija, Sevilla and Cádiz, represented by Manuel de
Paula, Salomé Pavón and Caracolillo de Cádiz will be present at the Baluarte.
Young Córdoba dancer Fran Espinosa will be accompanied by Manuel Herrera
and Niño de la Leo.
Veterans Juan Villar and Felipe Scapachini will share a program with
the younger but experienced singer Carmen de la Jara on August 21st, with
the company of Juan Ogalla for a thoroughly Cádiz night. Another major
Cádiz singer, Mariana Cornejo, closes the series on August 28th, along
with the company of María del Mar Moreno.
