Antonio Cruz García is a flamenco singer, known as Antonio Mairena. He was born in Seville in 1909, and he died in 1983. He was gypsy, his parents had five more children. In 1920 he sung for the first time in public and from this moment he participated in some competitions. His first success in Seville was in 1933 in Easter week when he sung to "Cristo de los Gitanos".He moved to Madrid where he sung for very famous and popular dancers. And then he sung as a soloist.


 
 He is one of the biggest and famous singer of the history. He deserved the biggest honors that probably no one else had never had in the flamenco history.
