So nothing better than dedicating it to a great as is Curro Malena, who died in May of this year.
The Peña El Búcaro
In 1983, a group of friends who were united by their love for flamenco went to the countryside to enjoy a good meal, sing and play. Around them, a bucaro with fresh drink that was passing, while the fandangos, soleás or seguiriyas flooded those meetings. Thus arose the Peña Flamenca El Búcaro, which that same year celebrated its first festival, and which today, four decades later, is a reference event in the province of Seville.
Many have been the spaces of the municipality that have hosted the Festival of El Búcaro in these years, from the Capitol Cinema, the Castañita pool, El Cáñamo, the Púa school, the La Villa Theater and, in recent years, the Hacienda Santa Cruz, which has given the definitive accolade with a location that is already a hallmark for cante jondo and that loads even more of duende this appointment with the Flamenco.
