Flamenco guitarist, composer, architect. Born in 1974 into a family of flamenco lovers where he was raised in a flamenco music environment. At the age of 12 he began learning to play the guitar. After his initial studies he took master classes from professional flamenco players such as Rafael Cortés, Salva del Real and Gerardo Núñez, which solidified his complete dedication to flamenco. In 1992, he formed a flamenco group gradually enlarging the numbers of the artists from a duo to septet. His group "Viva Flamenco!" plays both traditional and contemporary flamenco mixed with influences of Indian and Jazz music. Performing both as a solo artist and also with his musical group, Miguel has won first prizes in many folk festivals and is now the leading flamenco player in his country. He has performed and recorded with many great artists and groups and he concretised all over Poland as well as abroad (Austria, Germany, Italy, France, England, Belgium, Holland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Belarus, Oman and India). For several years he has been teaching flamenco guitar, and writing articles and interviews, promoting the art of flamenco music in magazines as "Flamenco International Magazine", "Jazz Forum" and "Swiat Gitary". In 1998, after a performance in Italy, he was invited to India to teach flamenco guitar at the Academy of Music and Fine Arts in Nagpur. There he started studying Indian music, learning to play the sitar under the guidance of Avaneendra Sheolikar. His fascination for flamenco and Indian music inspired him to go back to the roots of the Gypsy music and record CD titled Indialucia.

Indialucia is a musical project, which fuses two fascinating styles of music: Indian and Flamenco music. The album expresses both the human and musical fusion of these cultures, which could have had a common ancestor. Improvisation and rhythm are the common elements in both styles and are essential to the continued existence of this music. The recordings were made between 1999 and 2004 mostly in India and Spain. Many great artists from the two continents performed. This album is the result of the years of work, which for the first time demonstrates the common elements of flamenco and its Indian roots fused into one art form.
The album was distinguished with the 1st prize "Best Album of the Year 2005" Wirtualne Gesle and 2nd music critics' prize at the New Tradition competition for the "Folk Phonogram of 2005" award.

Né à Bobo-Dioulasso au Burkina Faso, Abdoul Aziz Sinka est initié très tôt au chant par une famille de griots.

Lors de voyages dans plusieurs pays de l’Afrique de l’Ouest, il complète son éducation musicale par l’apprentissage de percussions (djembe, douns, talking drum et calebasses) ainsi que du n’goni (harpe africaine).

Arrivé en Allemagne en 2002, Aziz crée avec son frère Ibrahim LANAYA (la confiance) pour promouvoir la culture de son pays. Avec l’apport de musiciens européens, le groupe modernise la riche tradition mandingue et impose son style particulier. Lanaya invite aussi régulièrement des musiciens du Burkina à se produire sur scène où, grâce à leur professionnalité, leur originalité et leur complicité, musiciens, danseurs et danseuses savent enthousiasmer le public.

En 2008, accompagné d’un bassiste et du flûtiste et saxophoniste Hannes Kies, Aziz évolue avec TRIO DJEKAFO dans une formation afro beat plus intimiste.

En 2009, Aziz s’engage dans un projet ambitieux: BEN KADY (la paix, c’est bien). Réunissant des musiciens d’une quinzaine de pays, cet ensemble se veut un exemple exceptionnel de diversité sociale, culturelle et musicale. D’horizons très différents, chaque artiste apporte une idée qu’il s’agit pour les autres de travailler et de réinterpréter en commun. Ouverture d’esprit, tolérance, courage et talent : voilà ce qui a fait la force et le succès de ce projet unique qu’Aziz espère renouveler chaque année !

Sa volonté de dialogue interculturel et musical, Aziz la montre aussi en s’investissant dans divers autres projets internationaux.

En 2005, il est le premier musicien africain à être invité au festival Sharq Taronalari, soutenu par l’UNESCO, en Ouzbékistan. En tant que percussionniste, il fait la même année une tournée avec Interkunst, un groupe d’artistes qui travaille contre le racisme et la violence. Depuis 2006, Aziz se produit régulièrement sur la scène house de Lituanie avec DJ Avieras. 2008 le mène aux Etats-Unis, à Charlotte (Caroline du Nord) où il dirige des ateliers de danse et de percussions avec Oneaka Dance Company.

A Berlin, Aziz - solo ou avec ses musiciens - a eu le privilège d’ouvrir des manifestations de haut rang comme le festival du film africain, AfriKamera, ou la Fanmeile de la Coupe du monde de football 2006 ou encore l’IAAF, le championnat du monde d’athlétisme de 2009. C’est aussi lui qui inaugure « 24h/Berlin », le premier documentaire en temps réel de l’histoire de la télévision que la chaine ARTE a diffusé en septembre 2009, pour les 20 ans de la chute du Mur de Berlin.

With a professional music career spanning more than 25 years, he has established himself as a leading percussionist, creative artiste and session musician renowned for staging outstanding live performances in concert halls, theatre productions as well as art exhibitions.

Based in Malta (Europe), Renzo’s concert schedules have taken him on a beautiful musical journey across the globe, from Greenwich Village (New York City) to South Korea. He has performed in major festivals (WOMAD, Festival of the Desert, Musica Viva, PASIC) and theatres, and has worked alongside exceptional musicians to the likes of Trilok Gurtu, N’faly Kouyate (Afrocelt Sound System), Guo Yue, Mercan Dede and Mousse Ndaiye (Youssou n’Dour). Through his ongoing World Music Projects, Renzo regularly engages musicians from various ethnic communities to collaborate and create unique musical dialogues. These cross-cultural exchanges and concerts have consistently mesmerised and intrigued audiences, and in 2008 Renzo was appointed Ambassador for the European Union’s campaign “Year for Intercultural Dialogue”.

His creative and inventive approach to challenging projects has earned him high-profile assignments from local entities, foreign diplomatic bodies and international arts councils. He has scored music for the visitors’ audio guide of Hal-Saflieni Hypogeum, Malta (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), performed the contemporary “Sounds Unlimited” during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2005 (presented by The National Arts Council of Northern Ireland and The British Council), presented installation performance “Re:Public” as closing event celebrating Cork (Ireland) as European Cultural Capital, and “Sketches from Home” performed during the Festival of Cultures in Viareggio (Italy) (by invitation of the Italian Ministry of Culture). Locally, Renzo leads his own Latin Jazz Quintet and works very closely with the contemporary Contact Dance Company (Malta), writing music and performing live on stage with the company in Malta and across Europe. He was also featured on a national level in adverts and campaigns to help raise awareness about social issues (Fairtrade, Iniziamed, Inspire – Foundation for Inclusion) and environmental themes (commissioned by the Ministry for the Environment, Malta).

As an educator, Renzo has collaborated with the music departments at Queen’s University (Belfast), University of Iowa (USA) and China Conservatory of Music (Beijing). His residency/research period at the Sonic Arts Research Centre (SARC) in Belfast (N. Ireland) highlighted his enthusiasm for more contemporary and experimental presentations of percussive music, merging the resonance of “found objects” and more conventional percussion instruments with live-electronic manipulation.

His solo album entitled “This is my language” (2005) is a collection of “sketches” using traditional as well as unconventional percussive instruments, and is described by the artiste as “a personal statement, an inner voyage … like an abstract painting, there to be perceived by every individual”.
Renzo is an internationally endorsed artiste for world leading companies Toca Percussion, Paiste Cymbals and Gibraltar Hardware, and is supported by Yamaha Drums and Olimpus Music (Malta). www.renzospiteri.com
