Part of Semana Flamenka - A week of fiestas and concerts celebrating the power, passion and poetry of flamenco all performed by extraordinary musicians, singers and dancers from the U.S. and Spain.

The Concerts
The weekend features an impressive ensemble of 14 musicians, singers and dancers gathered performing two different programs over three nights.

Fri, Sept 23 at 8pm - Programa A
Sat, Sept 24 at 8pm - Programa B
Sun, Sept 25 at 6pm - Programa A

The two concert programs Yaelisa is planning will be a unique experience for all involved. “A number of these artists have never had an opportunity to work together before and that’s always an adventure and a challenge,” she says. “They all have their own companies and groups they’re accustomed to performing with. But, like we did with the artists in Somos Flamencos, we’re asking them to step outside their comfort zones, to come together in a team effort with this group of people I’ve chosen, and we’re all going to make a show together. To do that takes complete and utter cooperation and trust. It’s taking a chance, but the results can be magical.”

Each of the festival’s dancers, singers and musicians will have an opportunity to shine in the concerts. Several will also be featured in intimate performances at local restaurant and nightclub settings. With the concerts and fiestas, the thousands who attend will have a rewarding full week of activities to choose from.
