Jorge Pardo is one of the most internationally recognised musicians of melodic instruments in the history of modern Flamenco. He created a language himself which is nowadays a referent for the Flamenco musicians in Spain and abroad as well.

He is a persistent researcher of articulations and deep Flamenco vocal styles in order to transfer them to his instrument. Artists like Camarón, El Chaqueta or los Zambos and many more have inspired him. At the same time his closeness to the maestros of Jazz like Lou Bennet, Jean Luc Vallet or Chick Corea has made him musically bilingual. Also, thanks to his co-operation in several World tours together with Paco de Lucia (his big brother) and to the possibility of reaching with no strings attached all kind of musicians and music of the world. He has been enriched musically and, those who really know him, on a personal level.

Jorge is one of the best examples for the union between the Flamenco and other types of music in the world, being without a doubt one of the founders of what we today call JazzFlamenco.

The above-mentioned is reflected in current project of the Big Band Flamenca: The representation of orchestral arrangements, by Vince Mendoza, Diego Guerrero, Gil Goldstein and Vicens Martín, concerning prominent themes of Huellas (2012) in which his most prolific and risky compositor period is passed on through 18 of his own themes. As a result thereof, the representation can be considered as a composition instead of a concert. It is the most important history ever about the musical wealth of Flamenco that comes and goes. In HUELLAS XL the typical sounds of Flamenco like guitars, hand claps,  folk signing or box drum are combined with the most characteristic timbres of Jazz; Contrabass, Marimba and trombones, saxophones and trumpets of a Big Band. There are two traditions on only one stage representing the same music. There are twenty-five musicians on the stage who reaffirm the inexistence of barriers in music.

Huellas XL is the original idea of Jorge Pardo and Pedro Melguizo, director of Etnosur. The piece has been performed in Alcalá la Real on the 19/07/13, at the festival of Grec in Barcelona on the 22/07/13 and on the principal stage of the “Decano festival” in Donosti (Plaza de la Trinidad): Jazzaldia on the 25/07/13.
