Internationally renowned dancer and native of
Galveston, Timo Lozano, has performed and collaborated with top figures in the
flamenco arts. Considered by
Spaniards “Maestro de Bulerías,” Lozano’s dance combines youthful energy with
age old wisdom. Accompanied by the
emotive cante of Irma La Paloma and Jeremy García’s captivating toque, “Unidos
en Compás II,” will mark Lozano’s premiere at San Jacinto College.
This unique production, the vision of Irma La
Paloma and Jeremías García, centers on the “compás” or flamenco’s beating heart.
The compás is the meter which, along with harmonic structures and
melodies, characterizes flamenco rhythms or “palos”.
Its structure and accentuations give flamenco its characteristic feel or
“soniquete.” Elastic, accelerating,
arresting, “silente o marcao,” compás is ever present and unifying.
In parallel concept, “Unidos in Compás II,” unites these artists as well
as talented local artists in flamenco cante, guitarra y baile.
