To Al Mozaico Flamenco Dance Academy Students:
We are auditioning soloists for our “Feria de Invierno” year end Christmas recital at the Norman Rothstein Theatre on Sunday December 19th, 2010.
For many students, flamenco is more than a hobby. It is their life and passion. Many students put their time, energy and soul into flamenco.
As flamenco is a solo art form, we want to nurture that special characteristic called "coraje". We want to encourage students to develop solos, practice independently and provide opportunities for them to perform in front of others. Therefore, we are sending out a call for soloists to audition for Feria de Invierno, the big stage, at the Norman Rothstein Theatre on Sunday December 19th.
This audition will be held on Friday December 3rd, 2010 between 6:00 and 9:00pm at Al Mozaico Flamenco Dance Academy, Studio B (Kasandra's studio).
This audition will be adjudicated by Kasandra La China. Students will receive constructive feedback on their dance. The criterion is as follows:
- The student must currently study at Al Mozaico Flamenco Dance Academy with either Oscar Nieto or Kasandra or Andrea or Michelle or Cyrena. (Eg: Must have a class card at the moment.) The student must also have studied at AMFDA for at least one (1) year.
- If the student performs with live musicians, the student must provide their own cuadro for the audition or dance to a CD selection.
- Length of the piece should be between 4 and 8 minutes long. Please do NOT go over 8 minutes, as this will mean disqualification. Short and sweet!
- Teachers, dance company members and semi-professionals may also apply.
- Students of all levels and ages may apply.
- Though we intend to select one soloist, if there are worthy candidates, we reserve the right to select more than one.
- This award will be based on merit and students will be evaluated on technical and artistic categories.
