Jewish Family & Children’s Services of Southern Arizona (JFCS) is excited to host an enchanting evening of multicultural music and dance.
Jácome Flamenco’s nationally-acclaimed ¡FlaMÉXico! is a unique concert experience that blends Spain’s Gypsy and Flamenco distinctive musical and dance style with the rich melodies of Mexico’s Mariachi and charro music. The passion of ¡FlaMÉXico! and the skill of this world-class ensemble of musicians, singers and dancers create a riveting celebration of culture that is not to be missed!
Often described as the “Blues” of Southern Spain, dating as far back as the 15th-Century. Flamenco evolved out of the traditions of several cultures including those of the Gypsies, the Moorish Arabs, the Jewish and the indigenous Southern peoples of Spain.
“My shows and my music are a celebration of culture. My inspiration comes from my Mexican heritage combined with the richness of flamenco. Through ¡FlaMÉXico! we capture the grace and passion of charro and gypsy music, creating a one-of-a-kind tapestry of music and dance.”— Chris B. Jácome
Creator and artistic director of ¡FlaMÉXico!, Chris B. Jácome is an award-winning composer and one of the most in-demand flamenco guitarist in the U.S. Born and raised in Tucson, Chris mastered Spanish guitar under the tutelage of world-renowned masters in Sevilla, Spain. The recipient of the Grand Prize and the John Lennon Award in the World Category for his song “Ritmo-Canix” from his album Levanto, Chris’ compositions have been featured in films as well as the Emmy Award Winning PBS television special: Flamenco.
“Seeing this group live is SUCH a joy! There is such love, passion and beauty that flows out of each member!”– A. Aviles, show attendee
There will also be a special guest performance by the Classical music duo: violinist Anna Gendler and pianist Alexander Tentser during the reception from 2:30 to 3pm.
For the past 28 years, the Jewish Russian-born husband and wife team have made Tucson their home. A violinist for the Tucson Symphony String Quartet, Anna trained at the Moscow Conservatory while Alexander studied piano at the Russian Music Academy and later completed doctoral studies at the University of Arizona.
Both Anna and Alexander are music faculty members at Pima Community College in Tucson where Alexander also directs the Pima Community College Orchestra in works of Baroque, Classical, and Modern composers. They regularly collaborate in violin and piano duets locally with Daystar Chamber Ensemble, Tucson Chamber Artists and the St. Michael’s Chamber Players. Anna and Alexander’s individual and combined talents and accomplishments have contributed in countless ways to the Jewish community and the enrichment of Tucson’s diverse musical culture.
