Compañia Kaari & Roni Martin

Compañia Kaari & Roni Martin is an international group of artists characterised by their high­‐energy and hands-­on approach, moving between dance, music and strong visual elements. The artistic team includes dancers and musicians from several countries. The company has now visited 14 countries.

In addition to their live performances, the company also produces music, video recordings of their performances as well as dance films. Compañia Kaari & Roni Martin’s style is contemporary, rooted in the rhythms and forms of flamenco.

The company ́s piece The Raven was awarded for the best solo choreography, original score for dance, and costume design in the world’s most prestigious flamenco choreography competition Certamen de Coreografia de Danza Española y Flamenco, in Madrid in 2012. In 2006 Tell me Rain was awarded in the same competition as the first foreign piece during the competition’s 15­‐year-long history.

Compañía Kaari & Roni Martin will celebrate their 15-­year anniversary in 2017. The ensemble will mark the occasion with their interpretation of Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina.
