My Songs And A Poem
Estrella Morente
From the moment we hear the first fast-strummed notes of Alfredo Lagos's guitar, the sharp hand-clapping 'palmas' and then the voice of Estrella Morente as she sings a long decorative 'ay', we are plunged into the heart of both contemporary and classical flamenco.
For Estrella Morente sings'Cockles' (an 'alegría' - literally 'happiness') with the energy of a generation whose fathers have broken open the prison of tradition, modernising flamenco without betraying its deep roots.
Lagos' crisp, subtle playing interacts with Estrella's beautifully light emotional tones as she stretches notes melismatically, bringing to life the Cádiz verses that tell of a sailor bound for foreign parts whose only desire is to see his love once more.
