Flamenco Amor - traditional Flamenco Dance Show
Claudia Caolín, expressive and elegant dancer resident on British soil, will show her talent and expertise with body and soul. She is joined by the beautiful dancer Aneta La Polaca, originating from Poland who will vow the audience with her presence and passion. The two are accompanied by stunningly virtuous Flamenco guitarist Jamie Cuthbertson (Cuffy) and impressively powerful singer Jasmine Villalobos from Cadiz. For this special evening a kaleidoscopic journey to the manifold styles of Flamenco awaits, from a nostalgic, historic feast of the senses to a modern, streamline interpretation, underlined by acoustic fireworks. The Flamenco trio and their combined love for this majestic artform will truly make this a very memorable evening.
Flamenco is Passion, Flamenco is Life, Flamenco is Self-Belief.
Having its roots in India, Flamenco has developed over many centuries whilst it originated as an art form amongst the Roma Travellers who were to settle down in Southern Andalusia in the 17th century, some of them making their way via North Africa, incorporating rhythms and songs along the way. In the ethnic melting pot of Andalusia and the environment of the poorer classes, Flamenco originated like a scream for liberation, like a defiant stance against oppression, and found its first 'golden age' in the 19th century. Since then, the art form has come a long way in all three strands: song, dance, and guitar - constantly developing while still being true to its original message of self-affirmation. Flamenco says: 'This is who I am. Take it or leave it!'
Claudia Caolín has her background in Contemporary and Flamenco Dance and has now a teaching experience of over 30 years. Originally from Germany, she studied for many years in Berlin, London (Laban Centre London), Madrid (Amor de Dios) and Granada, where she considerably broadened her technical abilities and her artistic understanding.
