On Saturday, November 7 at 10:30 p.m., the Casino Gaditano will host an encounter between the flamenco guitarist Alejandro Hurtado and the Quartett HANA, a young international chamber music ensemble. Hurtado has established himself as one of the outstanding figures in concert flamenco guitar and has notably won the Bord\u00f3n Minero. Alongside him, the Quartett HANA, founded in 2019 at the University of Music and Performing Arts Munich, brings the language of the string quartet and a strong international vocation.<\/p>

The concert will take place in the inner courtyard of the Casino Gaditano, on the Plaza de San Antonio. Built in the 18th century and renovated in the Isabelline era, the building stands out for the neo-Mud\u00e9jar decoration of its patio, designed in 1890 by the Sevillian artist Adolfo L\u00f3pez Rodr\u00edguez. The combination of this historical setting and the dialogue between flamenco guitar and string quartet makes this concert one of the most unique proposals of the program.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Located at number 15 Plaza de San Antonio, the Casino Gaditano was founded on October 27, 1844, and moved to its current premises in 1848. The building occupies an old 18th-century mansion belonging to a family of wealthy merchants, linked to the Ist\u00fariz family and to some of the most significant political episodes of liberal C\u00e1diz. Formerly known as \"Casa Otomana\", the mansion hosted political meetings and movements under the absolutist reign of Ferdinand VII, before becoming the headquarters of an institution that would take an important place in the social and cultural history of the city.<\/p>

The building stands out for its architecture and the successive transformations it has undergone. In 1857, architect Juan de la Vega redesigned the facade, introducing large Ionic pilasters and Renaissance-inspired decorative elements characteristic of Isabelline architecture. At the end of the 19th century, the Sevillian sculptor Adolfo L\u00f3pez Rodr\u00edguez carried out a new intervention that transformed the inner patio into a singular neo-Mud\u00e9jar space, while preserving the Isabelline decoration of the state rooms. Surrounded by marble columns and featuring refined decor, this patio is today one of the most emblematic elements of the Casino.<\/p>

Throughout its history, the Casino Gaditano has hosted numerous personalities from Spanish political, cultural, and artistic life, including Isabella II, Alfonso XIII, Manuel de Falla, Emilio Castelar, Segismundo Moret, Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Pem\u00e1n, and Rafael Alberti. Beyond its social activities, the institution also distinguished itself from its early years by its philanthropic commitment, supporting the creation of hospitals, public kitchens, and various relief initiatives during epidemics, wars, and natural disasters.<\/p>

Its cultural vocation is also reflected in its historical library, created in 1858, which today contains more than 10,000 volumes, notably dedicated to the history of C\u00e1diz, the Cortes, and Spanish legislation. The Casino continues to host conferences, exhibitions, concerts, and cultural encounters, perpetuating its role as a place of dialogue and cultural dissemination. As part of the C\u00e1diz Guitar Festival, its remarkable neo-Mud\u00e9jar patio will host several concerts, creating a dialogue between the guitar, flamenco, and one of the most unique places in C\u00e1diz's heritage.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
