Introduction

Après vous, madame’ gives new life to the iconic figure of La Argentina. The performance blends tradition and avant-garde, while Paula Comitre's dance merges with the textile artistry of María Alcaide, and contemporary piano compositions of French composer Orlando Bass. ‘Après vous, madame’ is a piece that reflects on the significance of tradition in cultural expression and the profound impact of culture on identity. The piece also pays homage to the rich legacy of Spanish music by renowned composers like Falla, Joaquín Nin, Albéniz, and Granados.

The event is part of the Helsinki Flamenco Biennial.
