The Malaga bailaora will be this Friday and Saturday at the Cervantes Theater
MÁLAGA, 28 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Malaga dancer Rocío Molina closes Terral 2021 this weekend with the first two works of her Trilogy on the Guitar, a project in development that is structured around three shows that, although they are related consecutively, are independent of each other.
In the first, Inicio (Uno), which will be seen on Friday 30, the bailaora and choreographer surrenders to Rafael Riqueni’s guitar in an intimate and poetic, tender and surrealist dialogue. The second piece, Al fondo riela (Lo otro del Uno), on stage on Saturday 31, is the antithesis of Inicio (Uno).
Tickets for both shows are available for a single price of 30 euros in all the sales channels of the municipal theaters. In this case, the space will have all the hygienic and sanitary measures, as well as the new capacity restrictions, they have explained from the Cervantes Theater in a statement.
Rocío Molina’s Trilogy on Guitar is made up of three consecutive but independent shows. The proposal is enhanced when it is presented together as it is the result of a single investigation around the essential elements of the flamenco triangle. This trilogy will close with a subsequent piece, Vuelta a Uno, in which the instrument and the dance enter into relationship with the cante, the last vertex of the traditional flamenco pyramid.
On Inicio (Uno), Rocío Molina affirms that she has been “for a long time trying to pause the movement to reach a natural depth. With Riqueni, my dance regains its nature, it is like taking a trip back, as if hearing the music for the first time and my body language comes out effortlessly or uncomplicated. “
It is a tribute to a virtuous guitar that infuses the creator with an original movement, both new and primitive. A journey to the essential in which Rocío Molina discovers and rediscovers Riqueni’s music. A delicate choreographic score that goes from the luminosity of Eden that recalls ‘Parque de María Luisa’ to the twilight beauty of ‘Amargura’.
For its part, Al fondo riela (The Other of the One) is the antithesis of One. Under the slow passing of the clouds, the tumultuous black sea emerges that invades everything and on which Rocío Molina dances. “What accompanies me on stage is my ego and two completely different guitars. Eduardo Trassierra is harmony and technical complexity. Yerai Cortés is all intuition and naturalness. In the background Riela is a piece about the reflection and loss of reality, a work where all my ghosts come out. You have to pass it and suffer it to reach the third part that will be a liberation “.
In rigorous black, Molina is torn between two guitars. She dances farruca, seguiriya, bulerías, soleá, in an incessant struggle with her own image, with Lo otro del Uno, which plunges her into the depths of all her fears. Vanity, ambition, pride, loneliness, but in the background it shimmers. A tremulous light vibrates at the end of the infinite soleá, black becomes color.
SUMMER FESTIVAL
It should be remembered that the 2021 edition of the Summer Festival organized by the municipal stage with the collaboration of the “la Caixa” Foundation began on July 5 with an emotional concert by Noa, who returned to Malaga after her 2017 performance with her inseparable guitarist, Gil Dor, and pianist Ruslan Sirota.
The Israeli vocalist was followed in that first week of activity by Kiko Veneno, who came with a band to present her new repertoire and her mythical songs, Andrea Motis with her jazz with Brazilian overtones and Mariza with her memory of the great Amália Rodrigues.
Contemporary soul with African roots by Ayo, Syrian music, including colorful and spectacular gyros, by Broukar, the reading of classics of all genres by the lyrical voice of Ainhoa Arteta and the latest by the versatile Portuguese jazz player Salvador Sobral they occupied the second week of Terral.
