MikroHiejazz | Nomadic Flamenco Jazz
Flamenco’s nomadic roots find new life in the music of Melón Jiménez & Lara Wong. Rooted in flamenco and tinted with jazz, their music echoes flamenco’s roots from India to Africa to Latin America.
Wong is a Canadian flutist and bansuri player who, after immersing herself in flamenco in Andalusia, became the first woman and foreigner to win the Filón Minero Award for Best Flamenco Instrumentalist at Spain’s Cante de las Minas festival. Jiménez, a Madrid-born flamenco guitarist with Gitano roots, mixes tradition with global influences and has toured with artists including Anoushka Shankar, Enrique Morente, and Richard Bona.
Since forming their duo in Madrid, Wong and Jiménez have performed on renowned stages across North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. In their Berlin debut performance they are joined by local favorites: dancer and choreographer Anna Castillo and oud player Alaa Zouiten.
