Kaburías

 

Choreography: Nacho Duato
Music: Leo Brouwer (Elogio de la Danza)
Costumes: Nacho Duato
Light Design: Nicolás Fischtel

Premiered by Compañía Nacional de Danza at the Festival Internacional de Danza de Itálica in Seville, June 22nd, 1991.

Kaburías is a solo inspired by Leo Bouwer's guitar music. The choreographer recalls the spell of flamenco employing the confrontation between two worlds: that of Kabuki and that of Flamenco ("bulerias": traditional Andalusian song and dance).
This solo is structured in two parts: in the first part, the dancer's movements remind us of the world of Kabuki. And, in the second part, one can appreciate the influence of the art of flamenco, accentuated by the wardrobe (skirts and flounces).
