Music of Spain

...TOP Spanish Singers




Romantic Spanish Music...


Music of Spain incorporates various influences from other types of music.


For example Nuevo Flamenco (New Flamenco) is the name given to a new style of flamenco.


The music appeals to all lovers of Spanish music and especially to a younger generation of fans.


Other musical genres incorporated into Nuevo Flamenco are rumba, salsa and pop and Jose Mercé and Niña Pastori are very popular singers of this style of music.




Nuevo Flamenco - Jose Mercé

José Mercé is the number one Nuevo-Flamenco singer in Spain today - he collaborates with Spanish guitarist Moraíto Chico.

Some of his most recent CDs are:

  • Lío - 2002
  • Aire - 2000
  • Del Amanecer - 1998

    Nina Pastori

    Niña Pastori - CD 'Maria'

    Niña Pastori has an authentic husky flamenco-style voice, so mature you might not believe she's in her 20s! Every song on this album is great, but the ones that stand out are "Amor de San Juan", "De boca en boca" and "Tu dime".

    Music of Spain fills your heart with joy and the popular music scene is one of the best in Europe.

    Spanish Pop Music

    Spanish pop music includes romance, excitement and has some amazing Spanish singers. When I watch music programs on Spanish TV I'm totally in awe at the maturity of the singers voices and their style of delivery.

    The following are just a few of the many popular singers in Spain today:

    Alejandro Sanz

    ALEJANDRO SANZ - 'Mas'

    Alejandro Sanz is possibly the most popular and respected of all Spanish pop singers. He's a singer, songwriter and producer and winner of numerous awards (including a Latin Grammy).

    He's been around for over a decade and has collaborated with artists such as flamenco artist Paco de Lucia and Latin diva Shakira. His music is a fusion of pop, rock and flamenco.

    "Mas" (1997) is the album that launched him internationally - it features classic tracks such as "Corazon partio", "Y, si fuera ella?" and "Amiga mia".

    His songs are so imbedded in the Spanish psyche that practically every Spanish person knows the lyrics to these songs!

    David Bisbal

    DAVID BISBAL - 'Buleria'

    David Bisbal, nicknamed the "Showman", is the man of the moment. Shortly after releasing his debut album, he won a Latin Grammy and a World Music Award - now that's not bad!

    'Buleria' is his second album and was the number one album of 2004. Bisbal has an amazing voice and is a very emotional performer. His music is a blend of Latin pop, salsa and flamenco.

    All the songs released from this album have become instant hits, including the addictive title track, "Buleria". This album is a combination of rhythmic uptempo tracks and haunting ballads and is a perfect example of the fantastic music of Spain. Also, check out his debut album, "Corazon Latino".

    Nuria Fergo

    NURIA FERGO - 'Brisa de esperanza'

    Nuria Fergo is a very popular singer and has released three albums so far of which "Brisa de esperanza" (Breeze of Hope) is her first.

    Even though she sings uptempo tracks with an infectious beat, her music has a soft, relaxing quality to it. This may be because she has a beautiful velvet Andalucian voice that washes over you like the Spanish sun (corny, but true!).

    Such is the music of Spain, if you're not in Spain, just listening to this album will transport you there!

    Chenoa

    CHENOA - 'Soy Mujer'

    Chenoa is a pop princess, but not of the Britney Spears variety. She has a strong, mature character and has a gutsy voice to match. 'Soy Mujer', although a pop album, is quite eclectic.


    For example 'En tu cruz me clavaste' has an infectious, Arabic sound, whilst 'Soy lo que me das' has a cabaret-Big Band sound.
