María Toledo
is already a global icon of modern flamenco. Born in Toledo, María
Rodríguez del Álamo is an artist who "feels the cante and
explores forms looking for the original sounds of the great
flamenco singers", according to specialised critics. It is not
surprising that she is the singer most in demand to interpret
Falla's El amor brujo, which has brought her success in
venues such as the Konzerthaus in Berlin, the Barbican in London,
the Auditorio Nacional de Música in Madrid and the Philharmonie in
Paris. She is also the first woman in the world of flamenco to sing
accompanying herself on the piano. She has won numerous awards at
flamenco festivals and biennials, such as Cante de las Minas and
the Cádiz Biennial, and her discography includes six albums, the
most recent being Ranchera flamenco, for which she has
once again been nominated for a Latin Grammy.
