Shaped by the rich musical traditions of the Spanish Gypsys, ...al Sur captures the passion and fire of the timeless flamenco genre in its original compositions and breathtaking performances. Featuring beautifully evocative vocals, the pounding ostinato of footwork, the irresistable power of driving percussion, frenetic guitar runs and rasqueados, and the plaintive timbre of the bowed contrabass, the sound of this ensemble is truly unique and delights with the freshness and exuberance of its artistic expression. The ensemble members are Graciela Perrone, vocals and dance, Sid King, contrabass, Brian Kushmaul, percussion, Gareth Jones, guitar
