Sinopsis
The flamenco of the 19th century has left hardly any written testimony. Newspaper articles, paintings and a few scores by classical guitarists, that’s all. All other information is handed down from mouth to mouth, melodies and stories; traces that can give clues about what was and which have an echo in time.
In the atmospheric setting of the centuries-old walls of St Bavo’s Abbey, dancer Irene Álvarez and guitarist Alexander Gavilán, together with a number of (flamenco) artists from Ghent, will explore these traces and turn them into their own contemporary story.
