Joaquín Cortés
The Essence of Flamenco

The history of Joaquín Cortés is written to the beat of Farruca and each strike of his heel.  The sweat and fury of his soul provokes us, seduces us, challenges us.  We love him and hate him at the same time because he makes us feel vulnerable.

“Essence” begins with the desire of a child who struggles in pursuing and achieving his dreams.  A teenager who faces the criticism from all those who believe he has committed a sacrilege with Gypsy culture, and with Flamenco. He is one of the first to bring a cast of dancers and twenty musicians to fill bullrings. His efforts, sacrifice and passion for art have created a new star with unique charisma. He goes from being a revolutionary Gypsy to a reflection in which new generations look to for inspiration.  Some people consider him a living myth.

With Cortés “Essence”, he welcomes us into his arms, sharing his pain, his strength, his charisma, and his struggle.  His essence is the result of all the love people have been transmitting to him over the years. He wants to return that gift so we may know that each experience he has lived and each person who has passed through his life has left a mark on him.

“Each of you are already part of my being. I just want the people who have been part of my path and those who are still to come to feel that I want to continue giving myself with unbridled emotion so that you can take my essence under your skin, because without you nothing would have been possible.”

 

Joaquín Cortés
La Esencia del Flamenco

A veces, basta con mirar las botas de un hombre para saber su historia. La de Joaquín Cortés se escribe al compás de una farruca, y va desde un patio de Córdoba hasta las calles de Manhattan. En medio, el mundo entero.

Lleva en las venas el viaje; y por eso en su taconeo se desprende el aroma de una candela bajo las estrellas. Pero lo suyo es algo más: La precisión de un metrónomo, con la pasión desbocada de todo un pueblo ­el suyo­, derramándose en puñaladas sobre los escenarios.

Rugen las guitarras, se oyen palmas que vienen de muy lejos y el hombre que baila en el centro hace temblar la tierra con su soledad. Qué extraña alquimia es el Arte, que nos hace ver el amor, la rabia, el deseo y la esperanza en un golpe de tacón.

Cortés baila. Pero el lenguaje siempre se queda corto. Quizás sea más justo decir que Cortés quiebra su cintura como un torero, cuando el toro de la vida le pasa rozando el costado y no hay más capote que el que crean las manos, dibujando fantasías en el aire de un teatro.

Gitano universal, new yorker con pies ligeros, cisne moscovita, seductor italiano, caballero español…hay tanto Cortés como kilómetros en sus botas. Pero siempre el Artista, expectante por salir de bambalinas y cabalgar sobre su magia con la furia de un jinete eléctrico.

Su baile es una tormenta donde ­curiosamente­, encontramos refugio. Que no paren nunca de latir esas botas; que sigan marcando el pulso de todos los que nos sentamos a verlo cada noche, en cualquier ciudad.
