It’s that time of year again when some of the top flamenco performers head for the Flamenco Festival at Sadler’s Wells for what is now a real annual treat. With the exception of singer Estrella Morente, the advertising for the event focusses strongly on the dance element (not that I am complaining as this is a wonderful chance to see the exciting Rocio Molina and Eva Yerbabuena amongst others) and it would be good to have a little more information about the singers and guitarists who are in the various groups. They are bound to be excellent, but I guess you need to go to the shows to find out who’s on stage!

Do try and catch Estrella Morente (14th March) – a fabulous singer.
