The pure, the orthodox has the future more than assured.
You only have to visit the patio of the Mesón "Melón de Oro" during the selective tests of the Festival of Lo Ferro to realize that the root cante keeps alive its flame in the throats of young and not so young who struggle daily to take control of a gap in this complex world of flamenco.
This was again demonstrated in the fifth selective that the International Flamenco Festival of Lo Ferro held on Saturday, June 29, in which four artists with roots jondas sought their place in the semifinal on Friday, July 26.
The warm night of Ferreña was opened by Alfonso León Carvajal, from Córdoba, with Antonio Fernández "El Torero", to take us through malagueña with abandolaos, seguiriyas and alegrías.
After him, it was the turn of the jondo to Pedro Cintas, also with "El Torero" to his side, who offered in his proposal soleá, tientos tangos and mining.
The Sevillian Silvia Reina Algeciras, along with Mane Ortega's sonanta, was the next to stomp the tables of Lo Ferro to take us for bambera, soleá and alegrías de Córdoba.
The evening ended at Vera de la cante by Belén Vega Rus, from Jaén, accompanied by "El Torero", with taranta, seguriya and tangos.
Next Saturday June 6 will be held the last selective, and after it we will know the name of the artists who will have the honor and responsibility to fight for the "Melon de Oro", the "Molino de Lo Ferro" and the first prizes in the different groups of cante in this important fortieth edition of our festival.
