After ten years the San Francisco based flamenco group Sol Y Luna is back to celebrate their reunion with a very special all star line-up of international musicians and dancers. The reunion concert takes place on Friday November 16, 2007 at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, CA.
CALENCO IS BACK!!!
The insistent, pulse-pounding rhythms of Sol Y Luna's "Calenco", California Flamenco, as the group calls it, combines Flamenco and salsa montuno driven by blazing Afro- Cuban percussion.
Reuniting on November 16th are some of the most famous and talented musicians in northern California. Leading the group's reunion is Spanish flamenco guitarist vocalist Jose Manuel Blanco El Grillu. Joining El Grillu are guitarist Don Fontowitz, congero vocalist Edgardo Cambon, bassist David Belove, flutist saxophonist Melecio Magdaluyo, Percussionist Michael Spiro, Violinist Anthony Blea, flutist John Calloway and percussionist Danilo Paiz. Making a special guest appearance is flamenco guitarist Jason McGuire El Rubio and flamenco dancers Yaelisa, Fani Ara and Melissa Cruz from Caminos Flamencos.
Presenting the reunion is guitarist vocalist KAWEH who's ensemble opens up the night with their own exotic blends of rumba flamenca, Latin, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern styles. On stage, Sol Y Luna's Edgardo Cambon and David Belove accompany Cuban guitarist vocalist Kenia Rodriguez and Spanish percussionist Willie Garza.
