Flamenco Vivo présente Lo Esencial de Luis de la Carrasca

Chapeautée avec ferveur et passion depuis quelque 24 ans par l’irremplaçable Luis de la Carrasca, la Compagnie Flamenco Vivo s’apprête à lancer sur la scène du Festival International de Jazz de Montréal sa nouvelle création époustouflante : Lo Esencial, montée pour la première fois l’an dernier au Festival d’Avignon. Un lieu où Luis de la Carrasca a depuis longtemps bâti sa réputation de maître en la matière : le célèbre créateur en était à sa 23e saison à succès consécutive au Festival d’Avignon, un fait unique ! D’autant plus que toutes les créations qu’il y a présentées ont fait l’unanimité du public et de la critique.

Renouant avec l’essence même de cet art né en Andalousie, le spectacle Lo Esencials’aventure sur les terres d’un flamenco pur et authentique : celui de ses débuts, quand les chants populaires permettaient de convertir les souffrances en espoirs et de se moquer à travers l’art des oppresseurs. Transmettant un héritage musical de deux cents ans où s’exprime tout un art de vivre, le flamenco se donne à vivre dans ce spectacle comme une véritable « thérapie spirituelle et morale », dont les spectateurs sont amenés à partager l’enthousiasme, la fougue et l’énergie. Pour cela, Luis de la Carrasca s’entoure de la crème des artistes flamencos d’aujourd’hui, venant d’Andalousie ou du sud de la France : le talentueux José Luis Dominguez à la guitare,Kadú Gomez au cajón et aux percussions, ainsi que les magnifiques danseursAna Pérez et Kuky Santiago. Un moment magique et explosif en perspective !

Singing With Our New Born Son

To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin’ on up, To the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie. Fish don’t fry in the kitchen, beans don’t burn on the grill. Took a whole lotta tryin’ just to get up that hill. Now we’re up in the big leagues, gettin’ our turn at bat. As long as we live, it’s you and me baby, There ain’t nothin’ wrong with that. Well we’re movin’ on up, to the east side. To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin’ on up, to the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie.

Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman. All the world’s waiting for you, and the power you possess. In your satin tights, fighting for your rights, and the old Red, White and Blue! Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman. Now the world is ready for you, and the wonders you can do. Make a hawk a dove, stop a war with love. Make a liar tell the truth. Wonder Woman, get us out from under, Wonder Woman. All our hopes are pinned on you, and the magic that you do. Stop a bullet cold, make the Axis fall. Change their minds, and change the world. Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman. You’re a wonder, Wonder Woman.

Hey, hey, hey! It’s Fat Albert! Now I’m gonna sing a song for you, and this is gonna show you a thing or two. You’ll have some fun now With me and the gang, learning from each other While we do our thing. Na na na gonna have a good time! Na na na gonna have a good time! Hey, hey, hey! This is Bill Cosby coming out with music and fun and if you’re not careful, you may learn something before it’s done! Hey, hey, hey!

I am Duncan Macleod, born 400 years ago in the Highlands of Scotland. I am Immortal, and I am not alone. For centuries, we have waited for the time of the Gathering when the stroke of a sword and the fall of a head will release the power of the Quickening. In the end, there can be only one.

Your tread must be light and sure, as though your path were upon rice paper. It is said, a Shaolin priest can walk through walls. Looked for, he can not be seen. Listened for, he can not be heard. Touched, can not be felt. This rice paper is the test. Fragile as the wings of the dragonfly, clinging as the cocoon of the silk worm. When you can walk its length and leave no trace. You will have learned.

Dance Your Cares Away Worry’s for Another Day

What you are about to see is real; the litigants on the screen are not actors. They are genuine citizens who, having filed their claims in a real small claims court, have been persuaded to drop their suits there and have them settled here, in this forum… the People’s Court.

Dance your cares away, worry’s for another day. Let the music play, down at Fraggle Rock! Work you cares away, dancing’s for another day. Let the Fraggles play, We’re Gobo, Mokey, Wembley, Boober, Red! Dance your cares away, worry’s for another day. Let the music play, down at Fraggle Rock! Down at Fraggle Rock! Down at Fraggle Rock.

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups. The police who investigate crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

Making your way in the world today takes everything you’ve got. Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot. Wouldn’t you like to get away? Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same. You wanna be where everybody knows your name. You wanna go where people know, people are all the same, you wanna go where everybody knows your name.

Sometimes the world looks perfect, nothing to rearrange. Sometimes you just, get a feeling like you need some kind of change. No matter what the odds are this time, nothing’s going to stand in my way. This flame in my heart, and a long lost friend gives every dark street a light at the end. Standing tall, on the wings of my dream. Rise and fall, on the wings of my dream. The rain and thunder, the wind and haze. I’m bound for better days. It’s my life and my dream, nothing’s going to stop me now.

You Take the Good You Take the Bad You Take Them Both

This is it, this is it. This is life, the one you get, so go and have a ball. This is it, this is it. Straight ahead, and rest assured you can’t be sure at all. So while you’re here enjoy the view, keep on doing what you do, so hold on tight we’ll muddle through one day at a time, one day at a time. So up on your feet, up on your feet – somewhere there’s music playing. Don’t you worry none, we’ll just take it like it comes, one day at a time, one day at a time.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have the facts of life, the facts of life. There’s a time you got to go and show you’re growin’ now you know about the facts of life, the facts of life. When the world never seems to be livin up to your dreams and suddenly you’re finding out the facts of life are all about you.

Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can. Spins a web, any size, catches thieves just like flies, look out! Here comes the Spiderman. Is he strong? Listen bud, he’s got radioactive blood. Can he swing from a thread? Take a look overhead. Hey there, there goes the Spiderman. In the chill of night at the scene of a crime, like a streak of light he arrives just in time! Spiderman, Spiderman, friendly neighborhood Spiderman. Wealth and fame, He’s ignored. Action is his reward. To him, life is a great big bang up. Whenever there’s a hang up, you’ll find the Spiderman!
