Dancer Concha Jareño & her Flamenco Ensemble to perform in Dublin

Concha Jareño, winner of the Premio Revelación at the Festival de Jerez 2009, will be performing at the Button Factory on July 19 2009.

Award-winning Spanish flamenco dancer Concha Jareño will be performing at The Button Factory in Dublin on Sunday, July 19th. Concha Jareño will present for the first time in Dublin her production “Simplemente flamenco”, a dance suite which includes Martinetes, Milonga, Farruca y Caracoles. Flamenco, simply.

She will be accompanied on stage by guitarist Flavio Rodrigues, violinist Raúl Márquez and singers Gema Caballero and Pedro Obregón.

Concha’s debut production “Algo” won her the Premio Revelación at the Festival de Jerez 2009. She has also been chosen by internationally acclaimed Spanish film director Carlos Saura to perform in his next project, a stage show entitled “Flamenco Hoy” which will premiere in Madrid only a few weeks after her Dublin performance.

Concha’s style is a unique blend of traditional and contemporary flamenco dance. Over the years Concha has danced with many renowned artists, including Rafaela Carrasco, Isabel Bayón and Belén Maya.

This event is presented in collaboration with Instituto Cervantes Dublín and the Spanish Embassy in Ireland.
