Juanma Jiménez

Enrique Morente's three sons tell the story of their father: the most revolutionary flamenco in history. Despite criticism from purists, he opened cante jondo to cultured poetry, brought it closer to young university students, explored its Arab roots and paired it with rock and other contemporary sounds. Much of the Spanish music of the last decades is heir to his findings.

Francisco Nieva was the man of total theater. In the sixties he modernized scenography and costume design and in the Transition he revolutionized stage direction and dramaturgy. After being censored for years, his greatest contribution was the “Teatro Furioso”, a genre he created that deliriously combined tradition and avant-garde and laughed at black Spain.
