45° Flamenco presents both traditional and cutting-edge flamenco singing, music, and dance with music director and guitarist Beau Bledsoe; singer from Sevilla, Spain, Antonio Rojas Flor; dancer/choreographer Melinda Hedgecorth; and various guest artists on percussion, cello, bass, and/or saxophone. Our performances are bilingual and full of rhythm and high energy. We have a variety of presentations which range from a typical mainstage flamenco show in Spain to educational presentations: Orígenes, a music and dance timeline about the different cultures that passed through the South of Spain from medieval to modern times; and Ida y Vuelta, which acknowledges “borrowed songs” from Cuba and Mexico and how they came to be woven into the fabric of Flamenco. 45° Flamenco is also available for classes, workshops and residencies and has experience working with both adults and children in English and/or Spanish.
