Lo Preciso: A Flamenco Performance by Rafael Ramírez
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Lo Preciso (which translates as “exactness” in English) is the newest contemporary Flamenco work by Spanish dancer and choreographer Rafael Ramírez. This intense solo dance work is accompanied by four musicians in a dueling quest for artistic precision. It is an ecstatic call-and-response delivery of the masculine prowess of the genre.
Rafael Ramírez hails from Malaga, Spain, and became a professional dancer at 11 under the tutelage of such masters as “La Lupi”, Rafael Campallo, Oscar de los Reyes and Javier Barón. His steady ascent has led him to renowned Flamenco festivals, including the Jerez Festival, Gran Teatro Cervantes in Malaga, the Biennale of Seville and the Festival Internacional del Cante de las Minas (La Unión). He has performed throughout the world with the dance companies of luminaries such as Antonio Andrade, Carmen Mota, David Coria, Rafaela Carrasco and María Pagés and also took the stage at the most prestigious tablaos (flamenco venues) in Seville and Madrid.
