The Company
The Arte Flamenco Dance Theatre, was created in 1990 by
Clarita, "La Clara". It is a fifteen member company consisting of
eleven dancers and four musicians. The company performs rarely
seen and presents beautiful renditions of Spanish classical/Regional
folk dances, and also a passion filled, fiery presentation of Flamenco
dance.
Arte Flamenco's Musicians, consist of four (4) outstanding and
highly accomplished professionals. Each, on his own, has several CD's
on the market which are also distributed internationally. They have
performed with Tony Bennett, John Tesh, and Struntz & Farah. These
musicians have also created music for other dance companies such as
the Joffrey Ballet and LINES Dance Company.
Arte Flamenco's Dancers are highly
trained professionals with
extensive dance backgrounds. They have all studied in Spain with
leading Flamenco and Spanish Classical teachers; Paco Romero, Juana
Amaya, Magdalena and Merche Esmeralda. All of this talent comes
together on stage creating a powerful display of the dance.
