“SOUL OF A WOMAN” PRESENTED BY SIUDY FLAMENCO 
The Siudy Garrido Flamenco Company presents “Soul of a Woman,” a flamenco suite featuring two company repertoire pieces that take us on a journey into the mysterious, oceanic world of feminine emotions and power. "Soul of a Woman" explodes with the fascinating aura of sensuality and passion inherent in Flamenco art.
Original music by José Luis de la Paz (Cristina Hoyos) and Juan Parrilla (Joaquin Cortes). Garrido’s vivid and provocative performance will be accompanied by five master musicians, as well as six acclaimed company dancers paying homage to the Adrienne Arsht Center 17th Anniversary Gala, offering the secrets of the soul in a night full of mystery and art.
