Show Page 8 The Thunderbird Monday, Octo6er 3 X , 1983 'ArksEntisrMmmgMt Heredia fascinates SUSC Concert review by Nani Lii Staheli As the fifth Convocations guest, classical flamenco guitarist Santa Heredia gave two brilliant musical performances in the SUSC Auditorium Thursday morning and evening. Heredia is the only female flamenco guitarist in the world, and the only star of her type to combine flamenco playing, singing and dancing in her presentations. Born in Almeria, Spain, she has long been widely acclaimed in Europe and is now making her debut in the United States. Her album Sarita Heredia Flamenco Fire has won awards from American music institutions. For more than 200 years music has been a sacred tradition in Heredia's family. The infectious harmony and rhythms are the result of the gypsy and Moorish influence in her native southern Spain. The music is handed down from father to son, she said. No one goes to music school. It is just a part of us as gypsies. The tradition was altered, however, when she began to learn guitar from her father at the age of three. The flavor of her performance was established by Heredias gypsy costume. Nearly every aspect of her appearance was integral to her music, from her buscanovios, the little lasso curl on her forehead, to her shoes which frequently beat a complex dance tattoo while her hands flew up and down the length of the strings. father-to-so- n Sarita Heredia converses with her audience in her evening performance.
