[Venue] Yokohama City Hall Atrium

“SOLO” is a trinity of dance, guitar and song, with Israel alone carrying all the elements of traditional flamenco, confronting the space. Still very popular today, “SOLO” has overwhelmed audiences in various venues, including museums and outdoor plazas, as well as in prominent theaters around the world. For the Japan tour, the performance will be held on the first floor of Yokohama City Hall, which moved to a new location last June, in a glass-walled, open-air atrium facing the outdoors. The audience will be able to enjoy the collaboration with the view of the city of Yokohama Bashamichi as the sun goes down and the streets of Yokohama Bashamichi change into the night.
As we prepare for Israel Galvin’s “The Rite of Spring” to come to Japan in the current situation where the spread of the new coronavirus infection is not expected to be easily contained, we have decided to present an additional performance of this work in order to share his world view with as many audience members as possible.
Please look forward to seeing Israel Galvin’s “SOLO”, which can only be seen at this time and place.

Direction, Choreography, Performer: Israel Galvin

Born in Seville, Spain. Known for her intricate and speedy footwork, her superb sense of rhythm, and her originality in opening up new worlds of flamenco, she studied flamenco with her parents, who were both famous dancers, and began performing at an early age. In 1994, he joined Mario Maya’s Andaluza Dance Company, where he won accolades such as “genius,” “revolutionary,” and “avant-garde. In 1998, he founded his own company, which has presented a series of innovative works that defy conventional thinking. He has received numerous awards in Spain, including the 2012 Bessie Prize in New York and a Special Mention at the 16th National Dance Awards in the UK in 2004. He is an associate artist of Theatre de la Ville de Paris. In recent years, he performed “SOLO” and “FLA.CO.MEN” at the Aichi Triennale 2016, and in 2006, he visited Japan for “The Golden Age,” which attracted much attention.
