Arts on Fire X Performers
The evening of festivities will begin with performances
by Asia and her Arabesque troupe of dancers. Asia brings a
diverse background and many years of study in Mid Eastern
choreographies, including folkloric and fantasy pieces based on
mythology. Arabesque features over fifteen dancers wearing
ornate costumes performing a variety of beautiful and unusual
dances.
As dusk falls, the Del Fuego
Dance Troupe will take the stage. Del Fuego is a coastside
troupe of dancers who create powerful performances with fire in
motion, fusing tribal belly dance with the ancient art of poi.
Still practiced by the Mouri people, poi is a twirling, spinning
dance of fire. Del Fuego adds fire-tipped fingers and fire
belts, dancing in the dark to deep groove drums. The fusion of
ethnic dance and their skill at spinning fire is mesmerizing.
The reception will also feature
live music by Vivace - an eclectic mix of classical and
Brazilian works as well as jazz favorites by the musical duo of
Rob Hughes of Pacifica on flute and saxophone, and Michael
Schillaci of San Francisco on acoustic and steel string guitars. |
