The vibrant lively voice, guitar, dance and Flamenco ensemble Sonidos Flamencos returns to Box Hill Community Arts Centre.
Dancer, Tomas Arroquero sees contemporary Flamenco as evolving from within the dancer, informed and shaped by the magnificent, ancient Andalusian tradition. Joined by Jini Lim, with guitarist Kieren Ray, singer Cherie Morgan, and Adrian Von Nunen on cajón, Tomas explores ways of shifting and realigning Flamenco into the immediate world of contemporary Melbourne.
The gravitas of song with the prowess of the flamenco guitar reciprocate an impetuous flow of rhythm integral to flamenco. The subtlety and complexity of this rhythm is matched by the visceral energy of the dance that claims the space with elegance and poise.
Don’t miss this rare performance to see the raw energy of flamenco and experience the mystery of this remarkable art form at a passionate, heart felt pace.
Since 1979, The Boîte has actively supported artists from diverse communities and promoted cultural understanding through the presentation of live music. Our work has enriched and broadened Melbourne’s live music landscape with truly representative programming, and continues to challenge assumptions around the boundaries of genre, culture and tradition.
