ROSARIO LA TREMENDITA

ROSARIO LA TREMENDITA

Rosario Guerrero
(Triana, 1984) is La Tremendita. Flamenca
by tradition. A writer by vocation. An artist out of love. Her jondo quality is congenital. Her
curiosity, acquired. Great grand-daughter of Enriqueta la Pescaera, grand-niece
of La Gandinga de Triana and daughter of José El Tremendo, Rosario caught the
singing on the fly and released it from an early age, in fiestas and peñas.
Already then her aim was to become a singer, and above all, a lead singer. 

For this reason, what was known was not sufficient. She believed it was
necessary to explore the origins of this expressive discipline and expand on
them. So she conducted her own research on flamenco singing, while studying
music theory and piano. As she built knowledge, she developed her reputation in
the most important competitions (Nacional de Córdoba, Antonio Mairena, La
Unión) and she put her singing direction to the service of the most
distinguished dancers (Belén Maya, Rocío Molina, Rafaela Carrasco, Andrés
Marín). Singing for dance was another subject in her career and she passed with
honours.

In 2008, after six years
collaborating with dance companies, Rosario eventually decided to capitalize on
her artistic career: she invested in herself as a solo artist. This is how she
definitely displays her most creative side: that of composer.

Today La Tremendita
offers and directs shows, and contributes her talent to the creativity of
artists such as Rocío Molina or Javier Ruibal. Her first album (“A tiempo”,
2010) was her first great challenge. And it won’t be the only one.
