Gestos de Mujer
Mercedes Ruiz rend un hommage vibrant au caractère de la femme andalouse et livre un flamenco, qui, tout en s’inscrivant dans la tradition, révèle une modernité hors du commun.
Austerity is one of the key aspects of the show. Mercedes Ruiz’ restrained elegance stands out against a discreet display of lights and uncomplicated staging. Both the stage design and the choreography are completely transformed in every piece, as if they were different paintings – but nothing jars, the contrasts are not too strong…
The music, composed by Santiago Lara, Manolo Sanlúcar’s second guitar player (record: “Medea 2002” ), perfectly suits the style of the dancer, a combination of Andalusian tradition marked by the energy and modernity of youth.
The double bass gives the piece an unusual colour and an intimate character.
