When it is heaven that waits

Heaven cannot wait because it is Rocío Márquez who beckons us.

One of the best shows in recent years comes to the Maestranza: flamenco and electronic music in one voice. With Bronquio and Rocío Márquez. With the top creators of fusion who design beauty and emerge with energy.

Santiago Gonzalo is Bronquio, a composer and musician who performs on his own, or in the company of others like Kiko Veneno, La Plazuela, Carlangas or Natalia Lacunza. He’s the one who gave the colour to El hijo zurdo or Las gentiles.

The one who has found in Rocío Marquez his penultimate adventure. Rocío Márquez, is a cantaora, composer and researcher. Always inquisitive. Always curious. Always questioning. Always alive. Aways open. Award winner, acknowledged, an inhabitant of the world’s stages. The Andalusian of universal vocation, she is traditional and cutting edge at once.

Rocío y Bronquio walk with firm footing in a sky of poetry and music with textures, measures, silences, modulations and accents.

The intuition of beauty as the only border. No limitation other than the embrace of music when it mixes, it blends. When it is one and many at the same time.

When it is old and new. When it is daring and patient. When it is savage and gentle.
