‘A breathtaking journey from the roots of flamenco to contemporary jazz’ is how the concert by Antonio Lizana, who will perform on Sunday 19 November, is described. Thanks to his voice and an extraordinary mastery of the saxophone, two extremely different worlds such as jazz and flamenco bind and grow together in an intriguing and seductive atmosphere. Antonio Lizana, star of Nuevo Flamenco, is one of the few Spanish artists to have performed on the prestigious NPR programme Tiny Desk in the United States. Over the years, since the release of his first album in 2012, he has collaborated with artists such as Arturo O’Farrill and Alejandro Sanz on Grammy award-winning works. Lizana’s show is described as a “breathtaking journey from the roots of flamenco to contemporary jazz”, all accompanied by her heartfelt lyrics that bring messages of optimism and truth to the audience.
