About this event
Strike a Chord ignites the interplay between Flamenco guitar and dance, exploring rhythm, movement, and visceral emotion through an intimate yet electrifying performance experience.

Strike a Chord ignites the dynamic interplay between Flamenco guitar and dance, uniting virtuosic guitarist Marco Van Doornum with the trailblazing ensemble “Las Flamenkas”, a collective of culturally diverse artists aged 18–30+ under the choreography of critically acclaimed artist Pepa Molina.
This bold new work explores the creative tension between tradition and innovation through an exchange of rhythm, movement, and emotion. Strike a Chord investigates the evolving language of contemporary Flamenco, expanding its expressive boundaries while honouring its deep cultural roots.
Blending authenticity with experimentation, the work offers audiences an intimate yet electrifying experience—where the pulse of the guitar meets the power of the body, and where cultural identity, artistry, and collaboration strike a resonant chord.

Reviews

Pepa Molina's  Bush Bailando has the more distinctive flamenco content with her vivacious "talking" footwork, speedy travelling steps, dazzling turns and a cracking castanet item. She is a powerful dancer, skilled in punctuating her moves with the strong accents of flamenco. Jill Sykes – Sydney Morning Herald – 6 May 2016 BUSH BAILANDO – Premiere Dance Bites 2016 https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/dance/bush-bailando-and-forge-review-20160506-gonxjq.html

“Molina and Fernández move with energetic vivacity tempering their meticulous control with moments of humour – a slight smile, a cheeky wink, a raised eyebrow – that reinforce the physical and sensual appeal of this very special artform.” Carol Wimmer  - Stage whispers Premiere Perceptions July 2023  https://www.stagewhispers.com.au/reviews/perceptions
