The concert closes the run of this sixth edition, which has gone from the most traditional flamenco to its contemporary expressions, with the presence of artists linked to some of the main families and lineages of cante.

Israel Fernández is, according to the Ayuntamiento, the artist with the greatest international impact of the young generation on the bill. Born in Corral de Almaguer (Toledo) into a Roma family of Andalusian origin, he is a singer, composer and musician. His album Amor, with Diego del Morao, received the Odeón Award for Best Flamenco Album and was nominated for a Latin Grammy.

He began playing in public at the age of 14 and from a very young age accompanied artists such as La Macanita, Fernando de la Morena and Vicente Soto. With Israel Fernández he recorded Amor and has continued collaborating with him on various projects.
The Bienal is organised by the Delegación de Cultura del Ayuntamiento de San Roque, coordinated by the deputy mayor Ana Ruiz, with the collaboration of the Peñas Flamencas del municipio and the family of Canela de San Roque.
