Paco Pena - Solera

Paco Pena

Work:: Paco Pena (S2145616624)


Company Paco Pe?a Flamenco Dance Company

Production:: Solera (T1514407213)

World Premiere. Brand new work featuring both young and mature performers from Paco Peña, Solera demonstrates that age is undoubtedly the most essential element in any artform. Andalucia, in Southern Spain, has for many lifetimes produced fine wines in a system that stacks oak barrels in several layers. Young wine enters the highest barrel and given time flows down, nurturing its best qualities, until what remains is a delicious wine that can only be achieved with age. The mature solera of the older generations enriches and refines the best qualities handed down to the young. Flamenco is not a written tradition but one handed down from one generation to the next, constantly striving to find different ways to express; the best of performances will incorporate part of what has been created before by the great practitioners of the past.
