Mikaela Kai Flamenco Recital

LA RAIZ ES LA FAMILIA – El Tiempo Invaluable

The theme of this year’s event is “Roots and Family”. Flamenco is a folk art form that originated in the Andalusia region of southern Spain, and the Romani, a migratory people, played a major role in its history and development. Family traditions still form the core of the Roma culture.

As an art form created by wandering peoples through a fusion of various music and rhythms, it resonates with a diverse range of people, bringing familiarity, nostalgia, and melancholy; in 2010, it was included in UNESCO’s list of Spain’s Intangible Cultural Heritage.

We are honored to be able to present this wonderful culture to you on stage through the art of flamenco, an art we feel passionately about. You will be able to enjoy a wide range of flamenco performances, from brilliant dances with castanets, fans, and mantons, which are typical flamenco accessories, to cante and guitar performances! Through this recital, you will enjoy a dreamy moment to immerse yourself in the passion of flamenco and free your spirit.
