Flamenco Festival London 08 - Flamenco Festival London 08
The annual Flamenco Festival London features some of the finest artists from across Spain.
Opening the festival is Compañía María Pagés, whose outstanding dancers are renowned for their vibrant, colourful performances - the perfect introduction to flamenco, as well as as a treat for aficionados.
Los Farruco, the royals of the flamenco world, present a truly authentic display of gypsy flamenco - mixing song with acrobatic turns and fast, furious footwork.
Other highlights include modern flamenco dance from Rafaela Carrasco and the avant-guarde Israel Galván; a show dedicated to great women of flamenco Mujeres; concerts by new star Concha Buika and traditional singers Carmen Linares and Miguel Poveda; and a celebration of gypsy flamenco from Andalucía, Viva Jerez!
