A Compas! To the Rhythm
Flamenco legend [Paco Peña] and his company of singers, dancers and guitarists are famed for their passionately authentic flamenco. They return to the Peacock Theatre with a brand new show,
A Compás! To the Rhythm. [Paco Peña] delves deep into the roots of the tradition, starting with its beginnings in Arabic, Gypsy and Spanish folk traditions. Building inventively on these foundations, while never losing touch with its identity, [Paco Peña] brings the true spirit of flamenco to audiences all over the world. [Paco Peña] brings together experts from the three elements of flamenco - song, dance and music - to create a show bursting with rhythmic energy. Traditional singers bring alive the intensity and depth of flamenco Cante, while the superb dancers create impeccably controlled rhythms with hand claps, castanets and lightning foot taps. And Paco himself, both in solos and guitar ensembles, displays his sublime guitar technique.
