Flamenco to Chopin - the beauty of slow motion dancing and the power of flamenco

A meditative, classical, slow motion vision of flamenco dancing by Bapi Chakraborty (bapic.com), based on improvisations by Fiona Malena (fionamalena.com) one hot and sunny Spanish afternoon...a little break from modern life, like a fountain in the heat. By an interesting coincidence, the band Muse put out an album with a bit of this same tune, the day before I had this ready for Youtube...Chopin is in the air...(oh, and great minds think alike). Fiona does a fantastic job of peforming and teaching in Spain and Canada, and is just as mesmerizing without the slo mo.

ta muzyka..obrazy obudziły we mnie dawne pragnienia,marzenia....w tańcu zcalamy się ze wszechświatem i wtedy najbardziej oczuwamy przynależność do niego...cudownie jest znów odbierać w ten sposób i móc przeżyć choć wirtualnie taką piękną podróż po obrzeżach swojej duszy...dziękuję

[statesofbliss]

and the timeline of the piano compostion? the flamenco dancing improvisation is new by the woman dancer, but what about the composer?

[ritubahar]

Amazingly refreshing! Thanks for this great video.

How beautifully the woman's dancing body flows with things around her, seen and unseen!

So beautiful! I love the water in the background and the way the shawl slowly floats around and then falls at just the right parts. Ethereal. Bapi you did a great job interpreting the movements and the music. Nice work to all.
