Cante Class
with Sol La Argentinita
10:15-11:15am
Glenda Sol Koeraus,“La Argentinita” is a Buenos Aires-born flamenco dancer who over the past decade has established herself as one of the leading flamenco dancers/choreographers in New York. A scholarship recipient of the Jerome Foundation's Travel and Study Grant and the Jacob’s Pillow Cultural Traditions program, Sol has been described by the New York Times as “seductively aggressive” and by Theater Online as “a master of her craft.” She is without doubt one of the few U.S.- based flamenco artists to posses a distinctive vision and voice in an art form still dominated by Spanish-based artists, despite its increasing global appeal.
Whether teaching, dancing, singing or directing, Sol stays very close to the roots of flamenco, never neglecting the cante jondo (deep song) aspect of the art, which also keeps her close to her native Argentina, a land where the accent of the mate amargo (bitter mate) still rules supreme.
