Don't miss it!

Amazing!!! Highly recommend this concert for both flamenco lovers and those new to it. Great mix of well-known pieces and original ones composed by Daniel Martinez. They will give you the chance to enjoy Flamenco at its best.

Performed with passion, power and purpose. Flamenco at its best. Exhausting just to watch! Don't miss it. You will remember it for years to come.

This is truly brilliant. Wasn't sure about it at first but this is well worth seeing. The music and dancing were fantastic.

I love flamenco and always look for performances at the fringe. This one is exceptional. The execution varies from the good (the dancing) to the superb (the guitar playing and the singing). But best of all, the pieces were innovative and exciting while being clearly in the flamenco tradition. Martinez is simply the best.

Atmospheric, superb guitar playing, singing and flamenco dancing. We have seen them before and will return. Cordoba in a bottle! They will take you there with their mesmerising talent. Must see!

Wow! I have no flamenco knowledge so this is just a gut reaction to the performance rather than a technical appraisal but this was brilliant. Such passion from the dancer and such apparent joy from the singers and clappers coupled with a man who could really compose and play a tune on the guitar. A bit of explanation of the different styles as well was a bonus. If you can’t get a ticket go anyway and watch through the window or from the bar it will be worth it but if you can beg borrow or steal a ticket then do, you won’t be disappointed.

We saw Daniel and his companions this evening (Sunday 8 August) and it was fabulous. They really seemed to enjoy themselves - which might have been a part of why we did too. There was the great guitar playing, the brilliant harmonies, the fantastic syncopated clapping and the amazing dancing of course - but the genuine pleasure the performers were taking in their craft created such a warm atmosphere. Smiles all around. Thoroughly recommend.
