ESPERANZA FERNANDEZ 1-day flamenco cante workshop in BERKELEY 12pm-2pm presented by Bay Area Flamenco Festival
Esperanza Fernández is one of Spain's leading Gyspy flamenco voices. Born in Triana into a family of Gypsy musicians, she is the daughter of singer Curro Fernández and sister of guitarist Paco Fernández. Deeply rooted in the singing traditions of Lebrija and Triana, she is noted for her unmistakably flamenco voice. After her debut at age 16 as the lead singer in Mario Maya's production Amargo, she went on to record with Camaron de la Isla and later appeared with Enrique Morente in A Oscuras. She has since collaborated with many of flamenco's greats such as Dorantes, Riqueni and the late Paco de Lucía. She has starred in numerous renditions of El Amor Brujo with symphony orchestras throughout the world and has lent her rich, soulful voice to many other musical styles in collaborations with international greats. She has issued several Cds including her premier release "Esperanza Fernández," which has become a classic among flamenco aficionados, "Recuerdos," which was nominated for a Latin Grammy in 2009, and her most recent release "Mi voz en tu palabra" (2013) based on the poetry of José Saramago.
