I am Melinda Hedgecorth, Flamenco Dancer, Choreographer and Founder of 45° Flamenco. We will perform at Rosehill elementary school and InterUrban ArtHouse. Our group includes Spanish native Antonio Rojas from Sevilla and Mexican native Fedra Cooper from Veracruz, two port cities, with Cuba between them, that were filled with music constantly in flux. With Guitarist Beau Bledsoe, Percussionist Joh Currey and Bassist Forest Stewart we will share the links between Spanish song forms of Flamenco and “borrowed” melodies from Mexico and Cuba that became part of the fabric of Flamenco without giving due recognition to the populations that first created, developed and enjoyed this beautiful music. Grant funds will be used so that our performances are free to the public.
