El Tete

Ricardo Fernández, better known as 'El Tete', gives us a dance with race, highlighting its strength and elegance within the young flamenco talents of today.

Biography

Born into a gypsy family, from Sant Roc, Badalona (Barcelona); younger brother of the dancer “El Yiyo”, he shows us a passion and innate talent in his flamenco dancing. With only 22 years old, he has had experiences with great artists, consecrating his place in the flamenco experience. José Maya and “Farruquito”, are some of the greats who influenced the development of this young dancer. He shares with his brother, “El Yiyo”, not only the physical resemblance, but they are also part of the new figures of today’s flamenco. They have participated together in the show “Flamenco de sangre” at the Teatro Apolo in Barcelona, touring several cities in Portugal and Spain.

Works

“Jubileo” in Miami and in various parts of Spain, performing with his brothers, “EL Yiyo” and “El Chino”.
The three brothers were part of the play “Contratiempo” and soon “El Tete” will be in a festival in London with “Tomatito”.

Anecdote

“El Tete” and his brother, “El Yiyo”, went to see the master “Farruquito”, where he danced in Café Berlin, in the city of Madrid. Arriving at the last number, “Farruquito” invited “El Tete” to dance on stage, and then ended up having a few drinks at “Casa Patas”. There were two flamenco greats, Robert “El Moreno” dancer and David Jimenez guitarist. This is how “El Tete” contacted them to dance for the first time at Cardamomo, along with two greats, “Farruquito” and Remedios Amaya.

What they say about us

“He vivido una experiencia maravillosa, los cantaores, los guitarristas, los bailarines te permiten vivir un sueño con su espectáculo. La atención insuperable y la cena deliciosa!! Les invito a visitar este sitio, realmente espectacular. Gracias por permitir lograr un sueño.”

“Cardamomo is dark, tight, and as the clouds formed inside, and the dancing and wailing began, the rooms became filled with energy. Each of the dancers interpreted the music, as they saw fit, and you felt that you were watching the creation of a dance, every time a new dancer started…dancers entered trances, clicked, and clocked, rapped with the guitarists, all the while the singers added their inspiration to the cause. The dancers, while on this small stage, commanded the audience, and it was a treat to watch them walk off the stage with all humbleness, after being musical assassins on stage.”

Live music is thriving in Madrid, from classical and opera to blues, rock and jazz, but the speciality is flamenco. It may seem odd that the music of the south is so important up here, but there are two reasons for that: first, a lot of Andalusians have made their homes here, and second, any flamenco artist worth his salt wants to play the big tablaos — dinner shows — in el capital. Cardamomo is the real deal, catering to a crowd that knows its bulerias from its soleas. There are three sessions a night, at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm, and, obviously, you’ll go to the latter.

“Lovely intimate venue with a good view of the stage. Great performers who are clearly passionate and inspiring. Wonderful first experience of flamenco. At just under an hour, it’s a lovely taste of flamenco.”

“El mejor flamenco en Madrid. Yo los he visto todos por cuestiones profesionales y es la primera vez que uno me gusta y me impacta. por primera vez he visto un espectáculo de flamenco para todo el mundo, no dirigido a turistas. Paloma Fantova soberbia y Kelian Jiménez lleno de fuerza. Un gran espectáculo para pasar una velada.”
