Our exams at school start on December 12th - in ten days. All of a sudden, teachers are flustered and giving us a lot of material to work on for the exams! There's a castanet variation, a dance choreography, a tail skirt choreography, technical exercises, ballet written assignments, lots of singing.
Off to practice the next few days. Thank goodness we have 2 official holidays next week.
Last night we saw Carmen Ledesma, our choreography teacher, perform. She is known to be very good at improvising to the singing - the best way to dance flamenco, because it comes from inside. What a powerful lady she is! I love watching her dance. She is subtle like a flower one moment and explodes like a wildcat the next. Incredible performance.
Up tonight: Isabel Bayón!
So glad to read this! Sounds like a lot to do. I also loved the pictures in your last post. Really beautiful.
