Little by little, the piano is creating a space for itself in flamenco music; it already has exponents of considerable importance. Among them, Chano Domínguez is an outstanding figure, the standard-bearer of the group of jazz musicians who have been "abducted" by flamenco; Pedro Ricardo Miño, is certainly the pianist who has been the best at transposing flamenco music that is traditionally played with the guitar to the piano; and David Peña Dorantes, whose piano playing is accompanied with a viola, violin and percussion, and who contributes the brilliance of Lebrija, his hometown.

Chano Domínguez
1993-2003

The journalist and musicologist Carlos Galilea writes in the booklet that comes with this double CD that nobody knows how Chano was able to blend jazz and flamenco. The fact is that he managed to do this “by picking at his piano like a miner”. This compilation album is a good example of this, which features his piano surrounded by jazz greats, and in which he enjoys the special participation of Tomatito, Enrique Morente, Tomasito and Marta Valdés..

Pedro Ricardo Miño
Piano con duende (Piano with Duende)

The first record by this young artist, who is incredibly mature and has a great personality as a pianist and composer. However, this record is more than just a youthful work. The artist, who is the son of the bailaora (female flamenco dancer) Pepa Montes and the guitarist Ricardo Miño, has studied and examined each of his compositions to draw us closer to the flamenco piano and to instrumental music. The album features eleven themes that will draw 'olés' from everyone. From the knowledgeable and demanding public, as well as from listeners who, without knowing much about flamenco, cannot avoid becoming emotional when they hear him, and become infected by the rhythm and simple melodies that characterise his themes, which are both flamenco and universal.

David Peña Dorantes.
Orobroy

The first work by this genius of the piano who comes from one of the great flamenco families, the same one as El Lebrijano. The record is a daring challenge in which an innovative, evolving kind of flamenco is throbbing, and Dorantes´ piano combines with the viola, violin and percussion, but without a guitar. The CD´s title track gained notoriety after it was used as the signature tune on a television programme.
