The higher the flamenco at the feet of the couplet.
Miguel Poveda has abandoned seguirillas bulerías and to pay tribute to the good pay and Green Eyes with their eighth album, The songs of love.
He began singing with fifteen years and barely 20 when they won the world's most precious prize flamenco, Mining Lamp National Competition Cante de las Minas in La Union.
Also collected the 2007 National Music Award, the Ministry of Culture, in the mode of interpretation.
He has taken his music to the Odeon in Paris, the Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York, the Wiener Konzerthaus, the Auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome or London Sadlers Wells.
Now his voice has gone further with Almodovar's "Broken Embraces, which included his version of the song in the dark.
Although Catalan and payo, no missing elf south and a brightness in her voice that overwhelmed the audience.
With Couplets of desire, pays tribute to a genre that heard since childhood at home.
His references are Manolo Caracol, Rafael Farina and Miguel de Molina.
However, Poveda sings a song, which, arranged and produced by Joan Albert Amargós and guitarist Chicuelo will succeed in joining the smell of old art with innovative minds.
Poveda Cartagena Jazz Festival comes to tomorrow, Wednesday November 18 at 21:30.
Tickets are running low, sold the last 40.
The ticket prices is 20 Euros.
Poveda is the singer more mixed, and full, sweeter and contemporary times.
As he wrote Elvira Lindo is a popular singer, someone who crosses the barrier between stage and seat, between generations, to the heart even of those who do not especially love flamenco.
You can applaud Poveda being smart or stupid, liberal or carca, Catalan or sherry.
He himself is proof that another youth is possible.
With this album Poveda has sold more than 30,000 discs.
Martyrdom, Carmen Linares, Pitingo, bitter, were some of the folks who applauded when President Miguel Poveda his label gave him the gold.
Songs of love has sold over 30,000 copies.
It is a double achievement.
First, the current economic situation and the problem of illegal downloads, they put down at least thirty percent of album sales ... nclude the flamenco.
Second, for the genre in question: the song.
That, advocates say, has been maligned by those who brand it as the soundtrack of Franco.
It is the singer of the moment.
