Caminos is the new project of guitarist Juan Gómez ‘Chicuelo’. It comprises tangos, alegrías, bulerías and granaínas, and with an unusual lineup, it opens new sound pathways in flamenco.
The pure touch of ‘Chicuelo’, the delicate drums of David Gómez and the virtuoso double bass of Manel Fortià envelop Karen Lugo’s dancing. Karen, in turn, generates new forms by dancing to the slightest whisper. Without cante, cajón or palmas, Caminos’ repertoire is made up of stories with flamenco rhythms. From a lullaby to a tribute to Django Reinhardt, alegrías are transformed by Fortià’s double bass and bulerías by Gómez’s drums. The show brings together freshness, strength and art, and transmits these characteristics with the same naturalness that connects the four artists on stage.
Juan Gómez ‘Chicuelo’ is one of the most important guitarists on the current flamenco scene and, at the same time, one of the most prolific and interesting composers of recent generations. As a guitarist, he has accompanied singers such as Enrique Morente, Miguel Poveda, Duquende, Mayte Martín, Rancapino, Chano Lobato, José Mercé, El Cigala, Potito, and Carmen Linares. He has also worked with jazz musicians such as Chano Domínguez, Carles Benavent, Jorge Pardo, Jordi Bonell, Raynald Colom, etc., and has collaborated with the classical pianist Maria João Pires.

The concert is realised in cooperation between the BMC and the Embassy of Spain in Hungary.
