The Contemporary Flamenco Ballet in III is a new music piece created by composer Javier Rodriguez. It is a ballet Full of emotions and senses.

Malac and Eshmun represent the eternity of love with passionate flamenco rythms and fusion of contemporary dance movements; and the passion between the queen of the heaven and the Cabiro, who dies and rises to join the love of Malac.

About Lourdes Fernandez 

Lourdes Fernandez began to dance at the age of five. From that moment, all her life unfolded through the learning of flamenco. She studied dance at the Conservatory of Madrid (1993-2004). She has a degree at Rey Juan Carlos University in Madrid (2005-2009) and completed a Masters in Performing Arts at the same university (2009-2010). She also taught dance at Saint Louis University in Madrid and participated in the International Gala of Dance for UNESCO.

An uneasy restlessness filled her soul, and she searched for new challenges out of her comfort zone. Lourdes arrived in London in 2012 to work as a flamenco dancer.

Since then, she has performed in renowned venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, Union Chapel, The Forge and Richmix. In addition, Lourdes has attended different festivals around the United Kingdom, like the City of London Festival, Jazz Festival of Birmingham and Brighton Festival.

Currently, she is working as a dancer and choreographer at different companies in London like Alma Gitana, Ida & Vuelta Ensemble, Prana company and some art organisations such as Live & Local.
