La Sombra De Tu Querer | The Weekly Letra

Last week we went to Gran Teatro Falla in Cádiz to see Marco Flores’s latest production, Sota, Caballo y Reina.

The show was incredible, and seeing it from the front row made the experience absolutely magical. (You can watch a little video below and see pictures of this gorgeous theater.)

Here’s a soleá José Valencia sang:

Soleá de Alcalá
Traditional

Por donde quiera que yo voy
me parece que estoy viendo
la sombra de tu querer
que me viene persiguiendo

Wherever I’m meant to go
I feel I’m seeing
the shadow of your love
for it’s following me

You can listen to Antonio Mairena sing it here.

And guess what?

We have been studying soleá with Mercedes here on the Flamenco Tour to Jerez.

Now, here’s a little bit of what we saw in Cádiz last week:
