#61 touching the fire: London’s Flamenco festival

Ole! Ole!

I am so so so happy I went to a gala concert of a London Flamenco festival featuring Mercedes Ruiz and it was just breathtaking. There are several dance styles i would call exceptionally passionate; like tango and salsa, but flamenco is a fire! Emotions, sensuality, passion, happiness and pain. It awakens instincts, emotions and reminds what life is about. But, not only that – all dancers demonstrated such a high class technicality and sophistication. real pleasure.

Here is a little video from the festival few years ago.

Price: 17GBP

Amazingness: people could not stop applauding at the end. Awesome

Duration: 2 hours.
