El arnés en su cuerpa (Sevillanas)
Composer, Lyricist, Singer: Ángel Escalante
Dancer: Hans; Palmerx’s: Jack Beal, Noelani Kidder, Nico Sansiviero
El arnés en su cuerpa is a Sevillanas, inspired by the modern take created by Barcelona-based Flamenco Queer, written and performed by Ángel Escalante. Derived from a poem by Frederico Garcia Lorca called
Canción del mariquita, with a lyric twist that seeks to celebrate queer experiences and queer bodies, instead of choosing to focus on shame and public scorn.
Queer Joy (Alegrías)
Guitarist: Nico Sansiviero; Singer: Noelani Kidder
Dancer: Hans; Palmerx’s: Jack Beal, Ángel Escalante
Queer Joy is a traditional style of Alegrías- a flamenco palo (style) that is a 12-count (3/4, 6/8) rhythm in the flamenco family of Romeras. This traditional flamenco style has been queered and embellished with
letras (stanzas/lyrics) that have been altered to reflect a modern, cruisy, NYC-centric experience.
