About this Event
CUATRO CAMINOS
Four paths that cross, unite, and become one.
4 Caminos is a unique flamenco performance that explores the essence of encounter and unity through rhythm, movement, and music. Four distinct identities walk their own path, each representing a direction, a season, an element.
Little by little, individuality fades, giving way to a shared harmony.
Guided by the symbolic power of the number 4, the performance delves into the cycles of nature and the invisible forces that connect us. At the crossroads of these paths, everything converges into a common pulse – a celebration of unity through diversity.

FEDERICO ORDOÑEZ
Born in Brussels to an Italian-Spanish heritage, Federico Ordoñez discovered his passion for flamenco at the age of 17 after attending a performance by Nuevo Ballet Español and the legendary dancer Eva La Yerbabuena. This experience marked the beginning of his artistic journey.
In 2004, he began building his career, performing at Forest National and touring with Flemish singer Belle Perez. Federico has participated in numerous international projects, including "Doce Tiempos de Amor" by Alexander Gavilán, and collaborated with artists such as Irene Álvarez, with whom he created productions like "Dos" and "Flamenco Esencial".
Since 2013, he has presented his own creations, such as "Ambos Lados", which explored the relationship between life and death, and "In-Puro", which reinterpreted the concept of "purity" in flamenco.
Federico has performed at prestigious festivals and venues including Tomorrowland, Bozar, and Kings Place in London. He has also been part of groundbreaking projects such as "Carmen" at La Monnaie and the innovative "Contenco".
In 2022, he created the performance "Poeta" in collaboration with Esteban Murillo, offering a unique fusion of poetry, music, and flamenco.
ESTEBAN MURILLO
Esteban Murillo was born in the Charleroi region of Belgium, where flamenco was an integral part of his life from the very beginning. The songs of his grandfather and the guitars of his uncles echoed through the small family home where he spent much of his childhood.
Initially drawn to the guitar, he soon found his true calling in singing. Over the years, he has collaborated with internationally renowned flamenco artists such as Carlos Piñana, Rosi Navarro "La Divi", Federico Ordoñez, Marisol Valderrama, and others. In 2013, he opened for Spanish singer Niña Pastori at the Royal Circus in Brussels.
His debut album, "Leyenda" (flamenco-pop), was released in December 2014. Currently, he is preparing his new performance, "Mi Verdad Flamenca" ("My Flamenco Truth"), inspired by a return to the roots of flamenco and dedicated to the great Andalusian poet Federico García Lorca.
Lucas Arango, born in Ecuador and raised in Switzerland, is a talented guitarist specializing in flamenco. In 2014, he was awarded a scholarship by the Fundación Christina Heeren, one of the most renowned flamenco schools in Spain, and began his studies in Seville.
During his time in Andalusia, he immersed himself in the traditions and techniques of flamenco guitar, collaborating with local artists, enriching his knowledge, and developing his unique musical identity.
In 2018, he continued his academic training at the Codarts Conservatory in Rotterdam, an internationally recognized center for music education. Since then, he has been based in Rotterdam, actively participating in music and dance projects and collaborating with artists from around the world.
With his dual cultural heritage and studies at top institutions, Lucas combines the authentic tradition of flamenco with a fresh and modern approach, captivating audiences with every performance.
