Sylvia Pantoja recalls her on-stage encounter with her uncle, Chiquetete
In a heartfelt display of love and respect, Sylvia Pantoja, the niece of the late Spanish singer Antonio José Cortés Pantoja, known as Chiquetete, paid tribute to her uncle during a performance in Leganés. The concert, filled with emotion and passion, served as a poignant reminder of Chiquetete's enduring legacy and the family unity that continues to inspire.
Born on July 26, 1948, in Algeciras, and passing away in Sevilla on December 16, 2018, Chiquetete was a key figure in Spanish music, particularly known for his contributions to flamenco and copla genres. His career was marked by emotional and passionate performances that resonated strongly with audiences, leaving a lasting impact on Spanish traditional music.
Sylvia's performance was a testament to her uncle's musical legacy. She closed her concert with her eyes set on the future, yet always mindful of her uncle's memory. Pausing mid-concert, she spoke about Chiquetete, highlighting his unparalleled voice and the deep feelings conveyed in his songs. This emotional moment underscored the personal and artistic legacy within her family.
The tribute also served to remember Chiquetete's legacy and the family unity that continues to inspire. Sylvia's performance conveyed that music and the love of her family continue to transcend generations and borders.
In a recent development, Sylvia, along with her cousin Fran, and Chiquetete's son, are heading to Colombia. While details about the trip are scarce, it is clear that the family intends to carry on Chiquetete's musical legacy, ensuring his memory lives on.
