Ángeles Toledano ES

Flamenco at the crossroads of tradition and renewal from a Spanish rising star

Spanish singer Ángeles Toledano is one of the most striking new voices on the flamenco scene. Alongside artists such as Yerai Cortés and Israel Fernández, she represents a new generation that both honors tradition and dares to challenge it. This May, she comes to ALICE for her first-ever concert in Denmark, presenting her acclaimed album Sangre Sucia in our intimate venue, accompanied by flamenco guitarist Benito Bernal.

Ángeles Toledano has quickly established herself as one of the most exciting voices in contemporary flamenco. With deep respect for the genre’s history, she moves fearlessly in the space between tradition and the present, where classic cante meets new sonic ideas. The result is a powerful and deeply personal interpretation of flamenco’s expressive language – raw, vulnerable, and intense. On her latest album Sangre Sucia, Toledano explores the tension between heritage and renewal. Here, flamenco’s deep roots intertwine with contemporary impulses in songs that revolve around strength, vulnerability, and human resilience. The album has received widespread acclaim and firmly positions her as one of the most innovative artists on the scene right now.

When she takes the stage at ALICE this May, it will be in a special duo format with guitarist Benito Bernal – one of the most promising names of the new generation of flamenco guitarists. The two have worked closely together for several years, and their strong musical connection is clearly felt in their onstage interplay. Here, flamenco is distilled to its most essential elements: voice and guitar. In Spain, Ángeles Toledano performs on large stages and in major auditoriums, but in ALICE’s intimate concert hall the audience will have a rare opportunity to experience her powerful voice up close. Don’t miss this chance.
