“Bandaluzia is winning high praise for its unique Australian interpretation of the powerful music and dance form….with their thrilling blend of passion and virtuosity” – Gabrielle Wilder, SMH
After recently performing at The Adelaide International Guitar Festival BANDALUZIA FLAMENCO return to VENUE 505 SYDNEY.
Featuring special guest flamenco dance legend Jonny Tedesco, flamenco dancer Jessica Statham and Rosalie Cocchiaro. Along with the famous Damian Wright on guitar with Ben Hauptmann, James Hauptmann on percussion.
Bandaluzia are highly revered for their ability to mix elements of other genres into their performances, whether being the rich harmonies of Jazz, the exotic melodies of the Orient or the infectious rhythms of South America. An experience that ignites the senses with the grace of Flamenco.
“The opening piece, Oceania (Wright) exemplified how the singings primal rawness contrast with the guitars lyrical refinement, while Statham’s dancing bridged the two, from the graceful elegance of her arm movement to the furious rhythmic precision of her footwork….Hunter gave a rapturous solo introduction to Khyal (Wright) before slipping into another groove with Hauptmann behind another dazzling improvisation by Wright.” – John Shand SMH
