Arte Flamenco Spring concert - Page 1 of 5

Saturday March 10, 2001
James Rouse Theater in Columbia, Maryland USA

(Saturday March 10, 2001) Each year, Natalia Monteleón's annual Arte Flamenco concerts get better and better. After last night's stellar performance, it's going to be a real challenge for her to top this one. The artistry of the special guest artists Silverio Heredia, Chuscales and Keka Villar certainly made this concert extra special.

The audience turnout was much better than I expected considering that the location of the concert hall, in Columbia MD, is considered a far drive for Washington DC residents. But friends, supporters and fans from as far as Chicago, New Jersey and Eastern Shore were in attendance. Thank you all for your support!

Out of 122 pics, there were only a few decent ones--I couldn't use a flash onstage. Hopefully I can convince professional photographer Tony Brown to let me publish some of his photos--he has a better camera and he is a much better photographer.




Saturday March 10, 2001, 6:15pm Company members Marta Chico Martín and Karina Araujo run through some of their steps as they wait for the rest of the cast to arrive.

Editor's note: that's my mom in the background keeping herself occupied while her son, with camera in hand, pretends to be a professional photographer. :)

6:53pm Chuscales and Richard Marlow work out a few falsetas during the sound check.
