Flamenco House Concert
Through our friend and Flamenco guitar enthusiast Steve Johnson, we have secured a date to host a live Flamenco concert in our home.
Flamenco guitarist/singer Cristian Puig and Flamenco dancer Julie Baggenstoss will be performing on Sunday May 11, at 7:00 PM at 1933-A McLendon Ave NE. Seating will be limited for this intimate setting. Only advance reservations are available, so reserve your tickets at Brown Paper Tickets.
We attended a similar in-home Flamenco concert last fall and felt it would be a fun thing to host one for these talented artists. Michael, Steve and I hope you can join us as we convert Casa McLendon into a Flamenco Taberna for a single night!
See you then,
Jan Clausen, Michael Brenneman, Steve Johnson

ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Cristian Puig is a Flamenco guitarist, composer, and singer with Gypsy roots in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, and a string of artistic successes in film, in the recording studio, and live on stage. He played the role of guitarist and singer "Joaquin" in the Alliance Theatre's 2013 production of "Zorro", and he has worked in films, such as "A Late Quartet", for which he composed Flamenco music for the soundtrack. He performs as a Flamenco singer and guitarist across the United States of America and with his Flamenco trio Puig-Sanchez-Moreno in his hometown of New York. Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Cristian Puig is the son of flamenco singer Gloria Monreal and Flamenco guitarist Pablo Puig. As a teenager, Cristian began his studies in classical guitar at the conservatory of Manuel de Falla as well as Flamenco guitar with his father. Soon he took classes in Flamenco guitar with Quique de Cordoba and furthered his studies in jazz, bossa nova and contemporary music. In 1990 he formed and toured South America with his group Rabat, fusing jazz, bossa nova and Flamenco. Cristian released the CD "Entre Cuerdas" featuring Flamenco-jazz fusion and has just released a new CD entitled "Inflam Project", which crosses Indian and Flamenco styles.
