Flamenco program pays homage to painter: Monet’s Moon
As a little girl, Mina Fajardo remembers seeing Claude Monet’s paintings in a museum in Japan, and she has admired his work ever since. The choreographer, composer, and dancer, who is now based in New Mexico, created the flamenco program Monet’s Moon, inspired by his work. She’ll perform at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25, through Sunday, Oct. 27, at Teatro Paraguas, 3205 Calle Marie. She’s joined by flamenco guitarist (and Fajardo’s husband) Chuscales and by vocalist Meagan Chandler. The Saltanah Dancers’ Middle Eastern belly dancers and percussionist and dancer Jesús Muñoz will add even more depth and dimension to the dramatic performance. Tickets are $30, $25 for seniors and students; call 505-424-1601 or go to monetsmoon2019.brownpapertickets.com.
