"Mi Soledad"


Mi Soledad (My Solitude) is a unique 90-minute fusion of flamenco dance, music and song, in which Cortés takes audiences on an intimate and provocative journey through one man’s private emotions. Through the music and his unmistakable trademark zapateado, Cortés goes straight to the soul of his art, using a rich palette full of the colours of flamenco to express solitude, intimacy and the manifestation of man as an individual.
Combining the musical rhythms of jazz, classical and flamenco genres with a live ten-piece orchestra and a seven-member vocal ensemble, Mi Soledad features music and lyrics by José Carbonell, Antonio Carbonell and Cortés.
Mi Soledad features costume design by Jean Paul Gaultier, lighting design by Francois de la Ossa and Ricardo Requejo. Antonio Carbonell also serves as musical director.
You can see Mi Soledad on December 15 at 10.00 pm in Guimarães.
