YouOverThere Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 How time flies. It's been almost 3 weeks since I attended both performances by the modern flamenco company Compania Maria Pages at the Kennedy Center. It was a whole new experience for me. Maria Pages incorporates modern dance sensibility into flamenco dancing, increasing the emotional range over traditional flamenco dancing. The current tour users 14 performers: Maria Pages does the solo dancing, with the solos sandwiched between ensemble pieces for 3 male and 3 female dancers. There are male and female vocalists and 5 musicians (including 2 Spanish guitarists). Listening to the haunting Andalusian folk music would have been worth the price of admission. Link to comment
