The Amsterdam flamenco choir Tiri Tiri accompanies a number of choreographies under the direction of Yota Baron. The choir emerged from the singing school that Baron started in 2019. They regularly perform at various stages and festivals, including the Spanish Film Festival.

More than 70 participants from beginner to professional

This year, more than 70 students from flamenco schools in the cities of Amsterdam, The Hague, Eindhoven, Leiden, Rotterdam and Utrecht are participating. The participants vary in age (from 7-70 years) and level from beginners to advanced; the majority have progressed. Several professional dancers/teachers are also part of the performances. The gala consists of original choreographies that they have been working on all year.

Prior to the live show, the students rehearse with the musicians during the day; a unique opportunity for the enthusiastic upcoming flamenco talent, who likes to share their passion with the audience.
