Five Fingers, Six Strings

Movement and music intertwine in a contemporary dance work inspired by the expressive power of the flamenco guitar.

Presented by Syncopate Collective, Five Fingers, Six Strings takes place on Saturday, November 15 at the Sanctuary of the Arts in Coral Gables. Conceived and choreographed by Rafael Ruiz-del-Vizo, the performance explores the relationship between the dancer’s body and the guitar’s six harmonic strings, transforming rhythm and tension into a visual and emotional dialogue.

Through a modern dance vocabulary, the piece reflects on the challenges and triumphs of finding harmony—both within oneself and in collective creation—inviting audiences to experience music and movement as a unified act of expression.
