SUMMARY:Flamenco … at the Yardbird … at the DJD Dance Centre
DESCRIPTION:A collaboration between Flamenco dancers – Claire Marchand\, Jane Ogilvie and Rosanna Terracciano \n“WOW…simply\, utterly. Such a rich and diverse production of flamenco components. We were enthralled. ” \nFollowing a sold-out 2025 tour\, this vibrant Flamenco ensemble takes to the stage with returning special guests – Spanish Flamenco singer and percussionist Francisco Orozco “Yiyi” and Vancouver Flamenco guitarist Peter Mole – for an intimate\, dynamic evening of live flamenco dance\, guitar\, piano\, rhythm and song. \nFlamenco dancers Claire Marchand (Winnipeg/Vancouver)\, Jane Ogilvie (Edmonton/Calgary) and Rosanna Terracciano (Calgary) have explored their own creative trajectories since meeting years ago as emerging dancers. Now\, as established artists\, each has played an integral role in establishing a Flamenco presence in Western Canada. Their paths have crossed as artists\, colleagues\, and friends in many ways over the years. In 2023 they decided it was time to formally create a project where they would have the chance to collaborate. \nTheir first project “Flamenco at the Yardbird” was presented to a sold out Edmonton audience in 2024 with invited guests; Vancouver Flamenco guitarist Peter Mole\, and Spanish Flamenco singer Celedonio Garrido. In 2025 they returned to the Yardbird for two nights\, with a new program including returning guitarist Peter Mole and new guest Spanish Flamenco singer/percussionist Francisco Orozco “Yiyi” – taking the show on the road to their hometowns of Calgary\, Edmonton\, and Winnipeg\, to rave reviews. \nThe 2026 tour brings an all new program of music and dance to Calgary\, Edmonton\, and Winnipeg. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nFrancisco Orozco “Yiyi” (Song/Percussion) is from an Andalusian family. Born in Barcelona\, he was introduced to Flamenco rhythms at the tender age of four and was trained by his father\, Flamenco singer “Joselón de Jerez”. He began his professional career at the age of twelve and performs internationally. \nClaire Marchand (Dance)\, known for her theatrical\, singular style\, has performed across Canada and internationally. \nPeter Mole’s (Guitar) raw yet lyrical guitar style comes alive when accompanying dance. He recently released his debut album “La Luna y el Viento.” \nJane Ogilvie (Dance\, Piano) is a 2023 recipient of the Edmonton Artist’s Trust Fund Award for dance and a lifelong pianist. \nRosanna Terracciano (Dance)\, winner of the Jacqueline Lemieux Prize\, has been presented throughout Canada and Europe\, including at the Bienal de Flamenco (Seville).
