History of the Guitar Part 1 - Flamenco Maqam
Riverside Studios, Studio 2, W6 9BN , [Venue Details]Flamenco Meets Maqam
An exciting evening inspired by the origins of the Spanish guitar in the compelling music, dance, and drama evocative of the blood and the gold of the Spanish empire, from which the Flamenco culture of the Gitano emerged.
The project is powered by four artists whose backgrounds reflect the rich musical exchanges between the Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Iberian worlds.
Ignacio Lusardi Monteverde, an Argentinian-born, London-based guitarist with a long-standing engagement in Flamenco and its wider cultural connections, brings a contemporary perspective to the instrument’s Andalusian heritage.
Konstantinos Glynos, a Greek qanun (a zither-like instrument with 78 strings famous for its melodramatic sound) player with a deep grounding in the maqam tradition, contributes the shimmering modal colours that have travelled from the Eastern Mediterranean across centuries.
Demi García Sabat, a Barcelona-born percussionist versed in Flamenco, jazz and Middle Eastern rhythmic languages, shapes the ensemble’s pulse with agility and nuance. The group is completed by Lourdes Fernández, whose Flamenco dance and footwork add a vivid rhythmic and expressive dimension.
