Accompanied by a choir of six palmeras, the Alicante-born guitarist re-configures flamenco for the 21st century

After an accident prevented him from appearing at Sónar last year, Yerai Cortés finally brings his revolutionary ‘Guitarra Coral’ show to Sónar 2025. The young Alicante-born guitarist has had an incredible year: the subject of C. Tangana’s award-winning debut documentary ‘La guitarra flamenca de Yerai Cortés’, he’s sold out venues across Spain, including a rapturously-received performance at Paral·lel 62 promoted by Sónar and Festival de Jazz de Barcelona.

 

‘Guitarra Coral’ extends flamenco beyond the guitar, with Yerai accompanied by a six-woman choir of ‘palmeras’ who’ll add their voices and handclaps to this collective ritual. A flamenco concert that blurs conceptions of the classical, the traditional and the avant-garde.
