Sueños de Flamenco

Flamenco is an art form involving highly dramatic music and dance. Associated with the Andalusia region of southern Spain, its actual origins are less clear, often assumed to have been developed by migrant cultures traveling from India prior to the 15th century, absorbing Spanish, Sephardic, Islamic, and Moorish musical traditions along the way. Sueños de Flamenco (Flamenco Dreams) portrays a young couple who dance the flamenco with great longing, passion, and vigor. The piece was commissioned by Duo Montagnard (Joseph Murphy, saxophone, and Matthew Slotkin, guitar), and later transcribed by the composer for Clarinet in A and Guitar.
