Bandaluzia Flamenco are celebrated for their powerful performances, unique sound and explosive displays of dazzling dance, musicianship and virtuosity that has made them a great success at festivals and theatres across Australia. Bandaluzia recently performed at The Adelaide International Guitar Festival curated by Slava Grigoryan, was awarded "The Pick Of the Sydney Fringe" at The Sydney Fringe Festival and performed to a sold out Sydney Opera House Concert Hall as an invited artist to TEDX Sydney. In 2020 Bandaluzia received a 5 star review for their performances at The Adelaide Fringe festival from The Advertiser (Peter Burden) who described the performance as “a virtuoso display, rapturously received… firmly established as one of the most enjoyable and exciting exponents of modern flamenco”. Bandaluzia has also performed at prestigious FourWinds Festival, The Sydney International Guitar Festival, The International Gypsy Music Festival, National Folk Festival, The Recital Centre, Sydney, amongst many others, and has been invited to perform at WOMADelaide.

Bandaluzia are highly revered for their ability to mix elements of other genres into their performances, whether being the rich harmonies of Jazz, the exotic melodies of the Orient or the infectious rhythms of South America. An experience that ignites the senses with the grace of Flamenco.

AN EXPERIENCE THAT IGNITES THE SENSES WITH THE GRACE OF FLAMENCO.

Bandaluzia Flamenco presents a spectacular new show that showcases contemporary flamenco dance and music whilst displaying the essential characteristics of the flamenco tradition. A journey through this unique and incredible art-form by some of Australia's most revered flamenco artists.

The contemporary aspects come naturally, as we are from a generation that had access to a wide variety of influences including jazz, classical, Arabic, and Latin, as well as contemporary dance, and we will often reference these influences in a way that is organic and enhances our performance and makes it personal and unique.

For the audience flamenco presents more than listening to music and dance, it's the feeling of sharing the experience, receiving the artists expression and connecting this to your own experiences. Performed well flamenco can be transcending moment for all.
