Rocío Márquez
Rocío Márquez Limón, known professionally as Rocío Márquez, is a Spanish Flamenco singers. She has had a notable career since winning the prestigious "Lampara Minera" (miner's lamp) prize of the Festival del Cante de las Minas in 2008.[1]
Márquez has collaborated with a range of other artists, not only guitarists such as Alfredo Lagos, but also the pianist Rosa Torres-Pardo,[2][3] the Viola Da Gamba player Fahmi Alqhai,[4] and the electronic artist Santiago Gonzalo ("Bronquio").[5] She is seen as something of a risk taker in the world of Flamenco.[6]
In addition to her career as a performer, Márquez has an academic interest in Flamenco and has been awarded a doctorate by the University of Seville for a thesis on vocal technique (Técnica Vocal en el Flamenco). This combination of the practical and the theoretical was mentioned when she was awarded the Premio Meridiana 2019 for Iniciativas artísticas, culturales y deportivas. The citation referred to her contribution to Flamenco as "cantaora, investigadora y Doctora Universitaria por la Universidad de Sevilla".[5]
