FlamencoTalk will celebrate the seasons of the soul with the premiere of its all-new production "Estaciones" (Seasons) at the Clifton Center's Eifler Theater on Friday, April 9, 2010. The third major project for the Louisville-based flamenco company, the production is a culmination of a year-long collaboration with Antonio Granjero, one of world's celebrated flamenco artists. Conceived and choreographed by Granjero, with musical direction by Barcelona native Francisco Orozco "Yiyi", the show promises to deliver on a level never before seen in Kentucky. A spiritual journey that takes us from the nostalgia and exasperation of Autumn to the rejuvenation of Spring, "Estaciones" explores the emotional landscape of our inner world through four familiar motifs, bringing into focus internal struggles, unbridled emotions and contrasting moods that color our lives.

Flamenco

What does the word "Flamenco" mean? There are several theories of what the word "Flamenco" actually means, all of which are pretty speculative. One popular theory says that the word originated from Arabic 'felag mengu' or 'fellah mengu', which means 'peasants without land'.
