Flamenco dance, song and guitar!
Peña, Carpio and Guerrero!
Three flamencos who pour out their art on stage with sincerity and honesty.
This show is committed to transmitting flamenco in its most authentic and natural state. A direct flamenco without additives or preservatives, a flamenco where every movement, every groan, every chord is full of truth. A truth that is born from the artist's feelings and that flutters across the stage until it touches the audience's heart.
Three hearts, three ways of feeling flamenco that come together to share and enjoy each other's flamenco, and at the same time to include the audience in this enjoyment!
With no other pretension than to live an unforgettable flamenco night, we present to you; ‘3 de Corazones’ (3 of Hearts)    Andrés Peña 

*3 DE CORAZONES*

Baile, cante y toque!
Peña, Carpio y Guerrero!
Tres flamencos que derraman su arte en el escenario con sinceridad y honestidad.
Este espectáculo tiene el compromiso de transmitir el flamenco en su estado más auténtico y natural. Un flamenco directo sin aditivos ni conservantes, un flamenco donde cada movimiento, cada quejido, cada acorde está cargado de verdad. De una verdad que nace desde el sentimiento del artista y que revolotea por el escenario hasta tocar el corazón del público.
Tres corazones, tres maneras de sentir el flamenco que se vuelven a unir para compartir y disfrutar de la flamencura los unos de los otros, y a su vez hacer disfrutar al público presente!
Sin más pretensión que la de vivir una noche flamenca inolvidable os presentamos a;
“3 de Corazones”    Andrés Peña

Back by popular demand, Andrés Peña brings his own personal style of flamenco music and dance. Rooted in the streets of Jerez and refined with the companies of Manuel Morao, La Chunga, Carmen Cortes, Juana Amaya and Eva Yerbabuena, his dance has won many awards and he has presented many critically acclaimed shows at international festivals during his long career as a soloist and choreographer.

Andrés Peña has toured worldwide both as a soloist and together with Pilar Ogalla and other artists, winning numerous awards including 'audience favourite' twice at the international Festival de Jerez. Andrés began dancing at the age of 10 with Angelita Gomez, and soon joined professional companies of Manuel Morao, La Chunga, Carmen Cortés, with the show ‘Salomé’, then Eva Yerbabuena, for the shows ‘Eva’ and ‘5 mujeres 5’ (international tours as principal dancer). He was awarded the Jóvenes Intérpretes Flamencos prize at the Seville Biennial in 2000 and the Jerez Cup by the Cátedra de Flamencología de Jerez de la Frontera in 2005 which helped to launch his solo career. He has presented nine shows at the Festival of Jerez and the Bienal de Sevilla, as well as touring these shows in many countries across the world.

As well as being a well-established performer, Andrés is also a co-director of the Ballet Flamenco of Cadiz, presenting ‘Acuarela con Sal’ at the International Festival of Jerez 2025. El Mundo referred to the ‘wonder and brilliance’ of Andrés’ solo dance (soleá) as ‘an exhibition of virtuosity in each of its variations’. Vida Flamenca’s review says that ‘Andrés Peña has once again shown that he is at the top of Jerez dance, with a classic style full of expressiveness.’

Guest artists are Jesús Guerrero, guitarist from Cadiz and David Carpio, cantaor from Jerez. 

Virtuosity and creative capacity have led Jesús Guerrero to be considered as one of the most talented and well-rounded guitarists on the current flamenco scene.  In April 2024 he released the album ‘Poema del Cante Jondo’, together with the singer Miguel Poveda, in which he set the poem of the same name (by the poet Federico García Lorca) to music. He has received multiple awards including the Fatiguillo Prize for accompanying guitar playing at the Seville Flamenco Biennial 2024. Jesús plays alongside flamenco legends like Miguel Poveda, Niña Pastori, Eva la Yerbabuena, Carmen Linares, and he appeared in the film Flamenco, Flamenco by Carlos Saura. He has released one solo album, ‘Calma’.

David Carpio is a complete singer, with a sense of professionalism and seriousness that is difficult to surpass. His singing, with a full range from harsh to tender, forged in 'La Plazuela' area of Jerez and transmitted orally from generation to generation, makes him an artist with a distinct echo of an ancestral voice.  He has two recorded albums, ‘Mi verdad’ and ‘Con la voz en la tierra’. As well as winning prizes for his singing for world-class dancers including Manuel Liñán, Isabel Bayón, Mercedes Ruiz and the Ballet Flamenco de Andalucía, where he worked under the direction of Cristina Hoyos for several years, he has presented his own solo shows at international festivals.
