Arte y Pasión- touring professional flamenco performance "The Silk Road" 5pm
The traditions of the Philippines, North Africa, and India came to influence the musicality, color and expression of flamenco through their own threads of spirituality, rhythm and resilience. As Indian movement flowed through trade routes into Spain, its storytelling gestures of India evolved into expressions of grace or sobriety. These influences made their way to the New World via Mexico, shown by the textiles used in flamenco inspired by the silk trade route, which in turn influenced the textiles in Mexico.
