The fiercest expression of the Human spirit ever devised
Flamenco Express returns to Bath with another cargo of raw, heart-wrenching flamenco - featuring 'sizzling soloist' La Joaquina and guitar virtuoso Chris Clavo.
Plus the overwhelming power, imagination and grace of Emilio Ochando; and the extreme presence of singer Juan-José Suárez - a true gypsy of the Extremadura, and household name in Spain, whose collaborators include:
Andrés MarÍn, Mario Maya, Carmelilla Montoya, Belén Maya, and Antonio Canales.
Juan is in hot demand as a composer for dance, theater and movie soundtracks. And is constantly adding new musical colours to the modern flamenco palette.
Emilio Ochando
... a phenomenon from the Ballet Nacional de España and Ballet Nacional de Cuba who took London apart in 2018. An acknowledged international artist in constant demand, Emilio has collaborated with Miguel Ángel Rojas, Carlos Rodríguez, Domingo Ortega, Angel Rojas and Carlos Rodrigue among many others.
His company 3DEUNO is now in its fourth year, and touring throughout Spain. Emilio recently won first prize at the III International Dance Festival in Almería.
