Barcelona’s Thursday-to-Sunday run, October 15–18, contains a particularly focused flamenco thread: three consecutive 20:00 bills at 23 Robadors, each built around a different lead name and a compact supporting cast. Alejandro Silverio opens the sequence on Thursday, October 15, with Betiana Barros, Victor Ramos and Edgar Platon. Irene Ribas follows on Friday, October 16, alongside Conchi Jimenez, Ruben Heras and Tomas Lorenzo. On Saturday, October 17, Vanesa Cortes brings “Palosanto” with Ainhoa Lara, Albert Pons and Alvaro Lopez. The venue’s own October agenda identifies all three programmes as flamenco.[1]
That three-night relay gives the genre a useful shape across the weekend: singers and collaborators rotate, while the 20:00 starting point stays fixed. It is a practical way to hear how a room’s flamenco programming changes from one ensemble to the next, with each bill carrying its own personnel. 23 Robadors places those Thursday, Friday and Saturday concerts in the same stretch of its live-music calendar, making a return visit part of the point.[1]
A Friday bridge from flamenco to Latin jazz
Friday also supplies the wider connection. At 21:00, Michel Camilo appears at Palau de la Musica Catalana with Ricky Rodríguez on double bass and Antonio Sánchez on drums, as part of the 58 Festival de Jazz de Barcelona. The programme page presents the concert as Camilo’s return to the venue in trio form, with Sánchez joining him and Rodríguez. It shifts the focus from the close quarters of 23 Robadors to piano, bass and drums in the Palau’s concert hall.[3][4][6]
Camilo belongs in this thread through a concrete musical link. His official biography records his duo work with flamenco guitarist Tomatito and their Latin Grammy-winning album Spain. That history gives the Friday pairing a useful context: 23 Robadors offers flamenco as a sequence of current local bills, while Camilo’s trio brings a pianist whose career has repeatedly crossed Caribbean rhythm, jazz harmony and flamenco collaboration.[5]
