Rocío Márquez is the architect who has designed the definitive bridge between jondo flamenco and the rawest avant-garde of the 21st century. With three decades of career behind her, the Huelva-born artist has dynamited the genre's dogmas to turn tradition into a stimulus for free flight. Her trajectory is a journey of introspection that has crystallized into seismic alliances with figures like Jorge Drexler or Christina Rosenvinge, proving that flamenco is an open dialogue. Her work Himno Vertical redefines the concept of a requiem: a circular ceremony where death is a necessary pause in the breathing of an eternal spiral. In this sonic liturgy, Rocío joins guitarist Pedro Rojas Ogáyar, whose classical and contemporary sensitivity merges with the quejío to elevate the performance to an almost metaphysical dimension, stripping flamenco of the accessory to find beauty right to the bone.
