Flamenco Vivo
Saturday February 12, 2011 at 8:00pm
Armstrong Theatre
3330 Civic Center Drive
Torrance, California 90501 Get Directions
Pride. Sorrow. Love. Passion. Universal themes that transcend the cultural boundaries. Through its purity of form, rhythms and intensity, flamenco strikes primal chords in the emotions of audiences of all ages, all cultures, all degrees of exposure to the arts. Flamenco is considered worldwide to be one of the richest expressions of folklore. It is inherently a multicultural art form. Originally from Andulusia, the southern region of Spain, it developed from the interaction of the many cultures that inhabited this region for centuries. Traditional dances include the joyful Alegrias, with songs that are light and carefree in spirit. The Tangos, one of the oldest and most basic gypsy forms. The Soleres, the essence and root of flamenco, with its themes of romantic tragedy, desolation and death. The flamenco party frequently ends por Bulerias, with a "jam session" in which the performers take turns to "show their stuff."
