About the Program
In a continuation of our Dialogue with Spain, we reunite with our community partner Flamenco Rosario.
The performance will feature talented dancers Katia Flores, Yurie Kaneko, and Charo Tsai (Chien-Ai Tsai), alongside skilled musicians Davide Sampaolo, Peter Mole, and Maria Avila, each bringing a unique cultural background. Their diverse contributions will enrich the exploration of flamenco’s evolution and its connection to contemporary Canadian identity.
Flamenco is a living art form, and what we have created here is an evolution, a new expression that reflects our society and its constant, fascinating transformation. It highlights the talent, dedication, and creativity of young artists poised to carry flamenco into the future while honouring its cultural roots.
Flamenco Rosario has long been committed to nurturing flamenco talent in Vancouver by providing a platform for the next generation of dancers to shine. Rooted in knowledge, passion, and storytelling, Flamenco Rosario encourages dancers to draw from their roots and develop an expressive and distinctive artistic language.
