Interview with Flamenco Performer Juan José in Granada

4/9/2016

0 Comments

 
We continue our Interview Series with an ever more varied and interesting pool of local experts right here in sunny Granada.
Juan José, a local flamenco performer and manager, and his team are a group of talented individuals that offer way more than just your simple musical entertainment at an event; you'll find violinists, Spanish guitarists, soprano singers, even magicians, pianists and of course the cream of the crop, the flamenco dancers themselves.
I love the idea of bringing in performers to an event as I remember very fondly (and with hilarity) a friend's wedding that showcased 'singing waiters' - supposed waiters at the dinner reception that suddenly burst into operatic arias and beautiful renditions of popular songs to the amazement of everyone in the room! The performance blew us away and years later, we're still all talking about it. 
Read on to learn more about these Granaino performers in particular. The original interview was conducted in Spanish and that can be found below.

Concierge99:  Who are your favourite types of clients?

Concierge99: Sum up your team in a few words.
