Classroom 2

On the occasion of the presentation of Third Skyby Rocío Márquez + Bronquio in the Cartografías de la Música series, the flamenco singer stars in this session on flamenco, accompanied by Nieves Acedo, director of Programs at the Museum.

In continuity with the line opened last year, in Cómo hacer cosas con... we continue exploring the processes of creation of contemporary artistic projects.

THE ARTIST

Hailed by the press as "the voice of the new generation of cante jondo", Rocío Márquez (Huelva, 1985) has spent more than a decade building a solid artistic career that today overflows the flamenco scene, where she is already a clear reference and consolidated figure. Her restless personality and enormous curiosity are evident in her discography, which transversely shows us both a great love for the flamenco tradition and an imperious need to widen the limits of that same tradition, exploring and experimenting with melodies, instrumentation, arrangements and lyrics.

Thus, from that fresh DVD recorded live of Aquí y ahora ( 2009) to Omnia Vincit Amor (2020), we find a bouquet of albums with which she has been consolidating her artistic discourse and reaping the recognition of the fans. For Visto en El Jueves ( 2019) she obtains the Les Victoires du Jazz award for the best world music album, being the first Spanish artist to achieve it. This recognition is added to other important awards such as the Lámpara Minera at the Festival de La Unión, the Giraldillo a la Innovación de la Bienal de Sevilla, among many others.

In parallel, Márquez develops an intense career of live concerts, combining different formats and proposals with which he is constantly touring. Beyond the flamenco and classical circuits, he is a regular at indie and pop/rock events such as Primavera Sound or Monkey Week and in the contemporary creation scene, performing at Matadero Madrid or the CCCB in Barcelona. He collaborates with musicians as diverse as Jorge Drexler, Kiko Veneno, Raül Refree, Niño de Elche, Christina Rosenvinge and Albert Plá, among others.
