About this Event
Rocío Marquez is one of the leading innovators of flamenco today. Her singing blends tradition and experimentation, engaging in dialogue with genres such as classical music, electronica, baroque, and popular music, while staying rooted in the essence of flamenco. Her new album, Himno Vertical (Vertical Hymn) — a collective requiem and tribute — honors life and death as a continuous transformation. It does not follow individual authorship but emerges from a collective voice, becoming a circular ritual of goodbye and welcome. Challenging the idea of personal creation, the work embraces anonymity, breathing through the memories and thoughts of those who engage with it. Authorship is no longer a personal mark, but an empty space filled with the voices of all who pass by.
Presented with Flamenco Festival New York and the Foundation for Iberian Music at the Brook Center for Music Research and Documentation. Made possible by the Elebash Global Voices Fund.
