Fearless flamenco musician, Rosario La Tremendita pushes the boundaries of the genre.


Rosario La Tremendita, one of flamenco’s most daring and innovative musicians, presents Matancera. This is a groundbreaking show that reimagines the ancient rituals of the matanza—a communal event deeply rooted in Spanish tradition—through the lens of contemporary flamenco.

With her signature blend of raw emotion, cutting-edge soundscapes, and poetic lyricism, she invites audiences to explore themes of transformation, irony, community, and the shared human passions.

Matancera is a visceral journey that mixes traditional flamenco with experimental elements, bridging past and present. Accompanied by a stellar ensemble of musicians, La Tremendita’s powerful voice and magnetic stage presence promise an unforgettable evening of artistry and soul.

La matanza is a ceremonial pig slaughter and has been part of Spanish culture for generations. It serves as a social event for people to come together to prepare the meat, share food and drink, and celebrate the community. The event is often accompanied by live music and dancing.
