Traditional Flamenco Music
Performed by Marta and Richard
Marta and Richard have been performing flamenco together as singer and
guitarist for almost twenty years. Usually appearing as a duo and sometimes
as accompanists for dancers, they take their traditional flamenco music from
their home in Canada to anywhere in the world, including regions where
flamenco has its roots - India, the Middle East, eastern Europe and Spain,
presenting their concerts to audiences in each of these areas. They live near
Montreal, Québec.
They have accompanied flamenco dance groups in countries as diverse as
Spain, Slovenia, Russia, Poland and the Czech Republic, and have performed
at various kinds of music festivals, including St. Petersburg's Northern Flamenco
festival in Russia; Bute International Guitar Festival in Scotland, Hudson Music
Festival, Québec and Music Fest, Nova Scotia, where they won first prize in
the Solo/Duo category.
