La Hispanoflamenca

Spanish Flamenco Fusion Group

La Hispanoflamenca is a Spanish-Flemish ensemble, specialized in 16th- and 17th-century polyphony from the Low Countries and the Iberian Peninsula, with a particular focus on composers from the north who sought their fortune in the south, or vice versa. Compositions printed in Flanders and rare musical prints or manuscripts from Spain complete their repertoire. Biography The line-up of La Hispanoflamenca consists of singers who regularly appear on the concert stage with ensembles such as the Collegium Vocale Gent, La Capella Reial de Catalunya, Al Ayre Español and the Amsterdam Baroque Choir. By mixing Spanish, warmer timbres with northern, slimmer voice types, a distinct tone color is obtained. Conductor Bart Vandewege is active as a singer, conductor and composer and works with the Collegium Vocale Gent, the Amsterdam Baroque Choir, La Petite Bande, Concerto Köln, il Giardino Armonico and the Freiburger Barockorchester, among others. He is also regularly invited as a guest conductor and has made various CD recordings.
