Fragmentos II

Neue Zürcher Zeitung

On this tour, the Flamencos Group has shown us the best of this traditional Spanish dance: The pixie and spirit of the passionate dance lurks perceptibly on the stage from the very beginning, visibly takes possession of the dancers and musicians, transforms these into ecstasy and finally communicates them to the audience in the same way. The two choreographed sequences "¡Voy!", by Teresa Martin and "¡Olé!", by Brigitta Luisa Merki, show the body rhythms of flamenco dancing at their most powerful, with a totally realistic impression of a firework in motion, and producing equally compelling sight and sound effects.

A dance of fluid softness and, at the same time, with an internal hot and cold hardness. Time and again, individual dancers glide out of the group to perform a solo and just as swiftly melt back into the whole. Brigitta Luisa Merki's sensitive choreography brings out the individuality of every person involved. The presentation becomes a unit, forming a fluid entirety with no staccato sections. No longer does the spectator see musicians, singers and dancers on the stage; instead the effect is of an ensemble where the members are completely complementary.
