Rhythmic Compositions and Conversations
Choreographer: Jossette Reilly
About the performance Rhythmic Compositions and Conversations is a version from 2023 CompasCompositionConversation performance in EarEye Fest. The idea was born with three flamenco female artists that came together around a table, conversing through rhythm. An informal performance that intends to shed the stage layers off flamenco and invites to experience the improvisational and social essence of the art form. It’s a meeting between tradition and exploration, and between women with different cultures finding themselves submerged with the world of flamenco.
In CompasCompositionConversations artists Phyllis Akinyi and Jossette Reilly gathered with flamenco guitarist Afra Rubino to share their experiences and views of flamenco rhythms. They all share the years spent in Madrid working with flamenco yet have very different expressions. For this special edition of Malmö Dance Week both Afra Rubino and Jossette Reilly will now share their flamenco rhythm and exchange knowledge with guest artist choreographer and performer Alma Söderberg whom began her career years training with flamenco in Madrid. Looking at what binds them together and how they each work or relate to rhythm, traditionally and experimentally is at the core of this performance.
