Director: Areti Boyaci
Cast: Flamenco Areti, Calienti
Music from the streets of the world meets flamenco in !Venga Ginga Flamenca!, a passionate celebration of music, song and dance.
For the very first time, the dynamic performers from Flamenco Areti and the sensational guitar trio Caliente will come together to showcase the sounds and dance of Brazil and Spain.
Flamenco Areti is one of Australia's most exciting and innovative flamenco ensembles and the Calienti musicians are well known for their intricate arrangements of Brazilian choro and samba music, as well as their fusion of original textured jazz, improvisation, Argentinean tango, and gypsy, African, Cuban and flamenco music. Calienti are also featured artists at the 2010 Adelaide International Guitar Festival.
