HEAVEN & EARTH
Soul, passion, spirituality and roots

Gospel harmonies bring the air (Heaven), and flamenco rhythms bring the roots (Earth), creating an ideal combination to discover what happens when approaching two extremes and the following vulnerable balance. From Bulerías to Rumba, walking on Tangos and Alegrías, Heaven & Earth invites us to explore what it means to walk along the margins, discovering new paths where tradition and avant-garde go hand in hand.

Heaven & Earth is the title of Nacho Melús’ new musical project, 11 original songs that derive from gospel and flamenco, inspired by his late travels in the United States and his family’s southern Spanish flamenco roots.

Surrender


Based on the research with a mixed choir of nine voices, different percussion instruments, an electric bass and a Spanish guitar, Heaven & Earth presents us the results of the common ground that both genres share: rhythm, passion, spirituality and gut to take us on a trip with a renewed sound fruit of the shared essence.

Don’t despair


The versatility of the project allows us to offer concerts with different formations ranging from the largest, composed of a soloist, a 9-voice choir, percussion, electric bass and two flamenco guitars, to the smallest, consisting of a soloist and two flamenco guitars.

FLAMENCO & GOSPEL WORKSHOPS
Live the experience from within

As an experienced teacher, Nacho Melús also offers Flamenco & Gospel workshops for all kinds of audiences. Through songs from his project “Heaven & Earth”, attendees will learn the secrets and joys of this fusion style.
A unique and original opportunity to complement the concert experience.


In the workshops, we will delve into the rhythmic richness of 3 flamenco palos: Tangos, Bulerías and Alegrías. We will study their structure, apply it by making compás with the palmas, and introduce the gospel harmonies.

Join us and let’s observe what happens when these two genres come together.
Come and live the Flamenco & Gospel experience from within.
It won’t leave you indifferent.
