Avec le soutien :
This workshop offers a fresh take on Andalusian flamenco and folk songs (such as the sevillana or the villancicos) as well as “aflamencado” songs from other repertoires, rearranging them in a polyphonic style and incorporating body percussion and instrumental percussion.
Instrumentalists who play only a chromatic instrument and would like to join the group are welcome, provided they are able to learn by ear.
Guitarists who already have knowledge of and experience with flamenco are also welcome; however, the instructor will decide on a case-by-case basis whether private guitar lessons are necessary.
Sessions will generally consist of three parts:
1. Rhythm work
2. Learning new songs
3. Rehearsing songs already learned.
It is not necessary to have extensive knowledge of flamenco (though it is always welcome!), but it is, of course, required to have sufficient musical ear to enroll (singing in tune and being relatively comfortable with rhythm). If a student’s level is not sufficient, private lessons will be offered to bring them up to speed.
Participants will be asked to practice diligently between sessions to maintain their skill level and avoid holding up the class.
Recordings of the new sections learned will be made and shared as study materials after each new lesson.
Minimum number of participants: 6
With 18 years of experience teaching guitar and more than 20 years in sociocultural activities, he has also led numerous workshops at schools such as the Rudolf Steiner School and the Active School, as well as at Andalusian associations in Geneva, Fribourg, Nyon, and Martigny.
He also accompanies dance classes led by various dancers in Switzerland, Spain, and France—either on a regular basis or during workshops in Spain and Switzerland—including Ana la China (CH), Antonio Perujo (CH), Maud la Manuela (CH), Naomi Guerrero (CH), Melissa Salcedo (CH), Octavia de la Vega (CH), José Candela (Granada), La Tati (Madrid), Carmen Ledesma (Seville), Manuela Carpio (Jerez), Ana Maria Lopez (Jerez), Raimundo Benitez (Granada), Manuel Guitieres (Montpellier).
As a guitarist with the group La Cueva Flamenca, he has gained stage experience performing alongside both local and internationally renowned artists. He completed his training in flamenco guitar under various masters: José Manuel Tudela, Domingo Rubichi, Manuel Losada el Carbonero, Agustín de la Fuente, Jesús El Guardia, Daniel Manzanas, and Enrique Bermúdez.
He has played and continues to play other styles—including blues, rock, Brazilian music, Gypsy music, and klezmer—before immersing himself in the world of flamenco; as a result, he is a versatile, open-minded guitarist who listens attentively to others. He also directs La Fanfare du Château.
