Description
Two prime seats to attend the Post-Classical Ensemble program Falla and flamenco: El Corregidor y la Molinera , with the participation of the Dancers from Barcelona's Passatges Dansa. In El Corregidor y la Molinera , Manuel de Falla, Spain's most famous composer, used flamenco to revitalize Spanish music after a century of somnolence. Music on the program is infused with the haunting cante jondo of flamenco song and the dramatic exuberance of flamenco dance. The concert will be conducted by GDS parent Angel Gil-Ordoñez, Post-Classical Ensemble's Music Director on Friday, Apr 23, 2010, at 7:30 p.m. at The Harman Center for the Arts, Sidney Harman Hall, 610 F Street, NW.
