| Description |
While he’s drenched in tradition and has won every flamenco prize there is to win, he’s certainly no traditionalist. FLA.CO.MEN, a concerto for dancer and six musicians, is the creation of a true maverick: a wildly unpredictable deconstruction of a centuries-old art form. The customary guitars and steel-jawed machismo are there, but so is avant-garde jazz and self-mockery, delicacy, lyricism, clowning one moment and haunting beauty the next. |
