SUMMER FESTIVAL SEASON
Flamenco on Fire
Viana, Spain
Festival season continues with a prelude to the 9th edition of Flamenco on Fire held in the Ruinas de San Pedro— ruins of an 18th century church and castle located in Viana, a Northern city of Spain. The show Voces (part of Flamenco on Fire) featured the powerful voices of Sandra Carrasco and La Fabi, with guitarist Joni Jiménez, percussionist Antonio Losada, and explosive dancer Alba Heredia.
