Déjà vu describes the uncanny sensation of recognizing something as familiar even when it is new. In this show, the new and the familiar coexist with a shared strength—calm, communal, and resolutely intimate—while still delivering moments that feel fresh, unexpected, and revealing. The Querencia album continues to be remembered by critics and fans as a landmark in flamenco discography, praised for its elegance and rounded form. Alongside Muy Frágil, this project marks Mayte Martín’s return to the stage with a collection that includes pieces of unknown authorship, such as SOS, which remains widely performed around the world today.
In addition to performing unpublished works, Mayte Martín revisits and reimagines her own repertoire in this show, infusing it with contemporary emotions and the seasoned maturity that comes with time. Her presence adds a depth that time has painted into the tones and textures of each piece, inviting audiences to experience a living, evolving flamenco narrative.
Mediterranean Flamenco Festival represents Fundación Mediterráneo’s effort to bring flamenco culture closer to residents of Alicante and Murcia, creating an accessible stage for both longtime aficionados and curious newcomers.
