Thursday, September 27, 7pm ¡FIESTA JEREZ! Gypsy Flamenco All-Stars This concert, celebrating the roots, joy and soul of flamenco, feels less like a stage production and more like an invitation to a Gypsy family gathering in Jerez de la Frontera. From the heart of Andalusia's wine country, this 12-member ensemble features singer/dancer Juana la del Pipa, singer Enrique el Zambo, guitarist Diego del Morao, singer/dancer Kina Mendez, and dancer Gema Moneo, a rising star in flamenco. Special appearance by Curra & Yoya of Mujeres de la Peña Tío José de Paula. http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/265325
Sunday, September 30, 7pm FARRUCO FAMILY: El Carpeta y La Farruca The U.S. debut of the 14-year-old prodigy El Carpeta, and return of matriarch La Farrucaboth of the legendary Los Farruco dynasty, the first family of Gypsy flamenco dance. As La Farruca is acclaimed for her elegance, her son El Carpeta, youngest brother of superstar Farruquito, is becoming known as the most extraordinary flamenco dancer of his generation and torchbearer for the family legacy. "You feel in La Farruca the accumulated wisdom of decades, the calm mastery that holds an audience in thrall and never lets it go." New York Times http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/263540
