Hello everybody,
Do you believe in the power of music? Then you shouldn't miss this video.
Adrián Martín is a boy from Vélez-Málaga, Spain. He is only 9 years old, he loves singing and his favourite type of music is flamenco (I must say that I love that music).

Flamenco is comprised of three parts: the song, the dance and the guitar. Moreover, you must add passion, feelings and rythm. In other words, "It's a hard nut to crack", as Paco de Lucía said.

He won the TV talent show "Mamá, quiero ser artista" and I am really excited after listening to him.
He sings with his sister a beautiful song by Rosario Flores called ¡Qué bonito!

Congratulations, Adrian and family. Your voice and your feeling are incomparable.


Adrián is a clear example of improvement.
He has demonstrated that he has got these characteristics well developed:
- Sociability: Form healthy relationships.                          
- Insightfulness: Understand people and situations.
- Optimism: View self and the future positively.

- Flexibility: Accept that change is a part of living.
