Thrill To Flamenco Dance And Music With SIUDY FLAMENCO: A DOS At The Aventura Arts & Cultural Center

The new arts season ignites the stage as the City of Aventura presents Siudy Flamenco: A Dos at the Aventura Arts and Cultural Center on Saturday, October 8 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, October 9 at 5 p.m.

This flamenco suite, created by Siudy Garrido with original music by composer/guitarist Jose Luis de La Paz, interprets flamenco numbers "A Dos" in duets between mesmerizing dance solos and the simple yet intense musical presence of De la Paz guitar.

The company ballet appears interspersed within and in between movements that take the audience on a journey into the intimate emotions in the music over the classic flamenco rhythms known as seguidilla, alegrías and Solea. It explores and presents a journey through the diversity of colors, sensations and emotions of a pure-rooted flamenco while at the same time remaining open to the present.

The dance company is known for collaborations with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and flamenco superstars Farruquito and Antonio Canales. The Los Angeles Times reported, "Garrido is a brilliant soloist with a vibrant company."

A composer and award-winning guitarist, de la Paz is recognized in all three disciplines of the flamenco art. He was the musical director and composer for the Ballet Cristina Hoyos for 10 years and has collaborated with, among others, José Mercé, Concha Buika, Belén Maya, Farruquito, Antonio Canales, La Des Moine Symphony Orchestra and The Los Angeles Philharmonic.
