Description
Enjoy a captivating collaboration between four Flamenco artists — a guitarist, a pianist, a percussionist, and a dancer. Immersed on stage in their individual artforms, they come to find each other’s rhythms, giving rise to the performance’s name — Encuentro, Spanish for meeting.
Encuentro features acclaimed Flamenco dancer Isaac Tovar in his Canadian debut performance. Tovar, a former soloist at the Ballet Nacional de España, gives traditional Flamenco dance new dimension when performed alongside modern instrumentation, such as the piano —uncommon in Flamenco.
Opening the evening are Wen Zhao and Roman Smirnov, a cross-cultural duo that blends flamenco guitar, tango, and Chinese Pipa folk music. Be sure to stay after the performances, for a meet and greet with the artists.
