The seventh week of the Nights in the Gardens of the Real Alcázar of Seville will bring together artists such as Esther Merino, Kid Carlos Trio, and Cristina Bayón from August 4 to 8. Tickets are already on sale for 7 euros.
The XXVII edition of Nights in the Gardens of the Real Alcázar of Seville enters its seventh week with a programme that spans from Italian Baroque to the most current flamenco. From Tuesday, August 4 to Saturday, August 8, five concerts will offer a journey through nearly four centuries of music, with a new event dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth of Manuel de Falla.
The cycle kicks off on Tuesday with the cantaora Esther Merino, winner of the Lámpara Minera 2022 and the Melón de Oro, who will present a recital with a special focus on tangos and jaleos from Extremadura. The artist, who released her latest work, "Re(e)volución," in 2025, will combine tradition and avant-garde in an intimate concert that celebrates the legacy of the great women of singing.
On Wednesday, it will be the turn of Kid Carlos Trio, a roots blues band with influences from jazz, funk, and rock. The group, made up of Kid Carlos (guitar and vocals), Lalu Cordón (bass), and Stefano Di Rubbo (drums), will alternate original compositions with covers of Willie Dixon, Freddie King, Peter Green, and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Since the release of "Fango" in 2020, the band has established itself as one of the most solid proposals in Spanish blues.
On Thursday, Graci Rodríguez and Manuel Soto "Noly" will merge flamenco, Andalusian rock, and singer-songwriter music in "The field has no key; roots and dreams of freedom." The concert will include tracks from their latest work, "My throat and your rhythm," as well as a tribute to groups like Triana, Alameda, Cai, and Medina Azahara.
On Friday, as part of the cycle dedicated to Manuel de Falla, the Dúo Almaclara —composed of cellist Beatriz González Calderón and pianist Marta Policinska— will perform "Midnight in Paris." The programme features works by Cécile Chaminade, Lili Boulanger, Enrique Granados, Mel Bonis, and Falla himself, in a dialogue between French and Spanish music from the early 20th century.
The week will conclude on Saturday with soprano Cristina Bayón and historical instrument performer Ramiro Morales in "Lady Madness." The recital delves into the "arie di pazzia" of the Italian Seicento, scenes of madness and love delirium that showcase the expressive power of early Baroque.
Tickets for all concerts are priced at a flat rate of 7 euros and can be purchased on the official website of the event. The concerts take place in the Gardens of the Real Alcázar, a venue that brings music closer to residents and visitors of Seville every summer in a unique heritage setting.
