The symposium explores links between flamenco dance and the keyboard music of the great Spanish nationalist composers such as Albéniz, Granados and de Falla, the program will showcase distinguished international and local artists, dancers and composers who share a common passion for Spanish music. The Symposium will assist pianists to develop an appreciation of the dance sources that underpin much Spanish music, helping to inform their approach to its performance and allowing them to arrive at a deeper and more truthful interpretation.
