Israel Fernández

The cantaor Israel Fernández presents Recital de cante on the stage of Teatros del Canal as part of the Suma Flamenca programme.

Israel Fernández is a cantaor, composer and multi-instrumentalist born in Toledo in 1989. He comes from a Romani family from Corral de Almaguer with Andalusian roots and began his musical career in childhood. His first album, Naranjas sobre la nieve, was released when he was 18 years old, followed by other recording projects such as Con hilo de oro fino, Universo pastora and Amor, with which he achieved prominent awards and nominations. His artistic proposal combines the tradition of flamenco with fusion and new palos, showing the influence of historical figures such as Tomás Pavón, Carbonerillo, Manuel Escacena and la Niña de los Peines, as well as later references like Camarón de la Isla and Enrique Morente.

Throughout his career, the performer has collaborated with various artists from the national and international scene, in addition to forming a regular duo with Diego del Morao. In this performance at Teatros del Canal, the audience can listen to a repertoire focused on the exploration of different styles of cante flamenco.
