“Baras is one of the world’s great divas, a superstar who transcends genres; a performer whose anguished concentration is so perpetually etched into her face that the occasional smile lights up the stage like a lighthouse beacon.”
– BachTrack
“Her celebrated footwork—fast, fierce and controlled—can distil right down to the drilling of a lone woodpecker; it can be as threatening as a military drumbeat, as delicate as a patter of rain.”
– The Guardian
“The power and fluency of her movement is mesmeric. The warmth of her personality is infectious. She utterly owns the stage.”
– The Guardian
Celebrating the 25th anniversary of her own dance company, world renowned flamenco artist Sara Baras pays tribute to Spanish guitar virtuoso, Paco de Lucia (1947 – 2014), who left a revolutionary influence on flamenco music with his work.
Paco de Lucia was one of Spain’s greatest guitarists, pushing the boundaries and opening the doors of flamenco music to the world. His technical prowess, innovative compositions, and ability to blend traditional flamenco with other musical genres has evolved and popularised flamenco, empowering its relevance and vibrancy for future generations.
Conceived from the respect, passion and love both artists shared, Vuela is performed by Sara Baras together with 14 exceptional musicians and dancers, and brings audiences a choreographic journey of 15 unique pieces within four acts: Wood, Sea, Death and Fly. With each piece revolving around a specific word, Vuela is a fascinating itinerary which sets flamenco language in motion.
Celebrated for her lightning-fast footwork, intricate hand, arm and body movements, as well as her captivating stage presence choreography, Sara Baras is known for being “a woman who can dance up not just a flamenco storm, but a hurricane” (The Guardian). Her latest creation Vuela has toured the world to critical acclaim and now arrives in Singapore, marking the celebrated artist’s return to Esplanade since 2016.
This production is part of da:ns focus – Salero Flamenco, a weekend which embraces the passion, soul and fervour of flamenco dance performed by some of the best musicians and dancers worldwide, while also engaging with flamenco practitioners and aficionados in Singapore.
