VOLVER: Jesús Muñoz Flamenco Returns to the Kimo Theater
Volver. To return. Jesús Muñoz Flamenco takes you on a journey exploring new works of choreography and musical collaborations. VOLVER is a transcendence of emotion, artistry, and creativity. From heartbreak to celebration, VOLVER is deeply human and visceral, brought to life by a line-up of nationally renowned artists.
“As an artist, I find a need to represent the times we are living in, and at the same time to remember where we came from; our roots. Coming off of this summer season we debut a new show “Volver” which both signals a return to MainStage as well as paying homage to my roots.” — Jesus Muñoz
Muñoz is recognized for having created a unique and original method and rhythms, fusing his Mexican-American roots with his traditional Spanish training — making his style of Flamenco deeply personal. He has been called “riveting” and a “jazz session artist,” with the live-performance direction of an orchestra conductor. Muñoz’s world-class ensemble is dedicated to creating a unique improvisational structure that can adapt to both traditional and contemporary methods. The cast features original works and national and international guest artists every season. VOLVER will take you on a journey through southern Spain, where soul meets dance, breathing the evolution of flamenco’s dance and music. Jesus Muñoz Flamenco will be hosting an intimate, “flamenco night out,” the day before the concert at Flamenco Works acknowledging their supporters with a personal, abbreviated show and hors d’oeuvres at Flamenco Works.
"Tú tenías mucha razón, le hago caso al corazón, y me muero por volver” — Vicente Fernandez “Volver, Volver, Volver...”
