Notes

Clearly, the show didn't precisely follow the setlist from the program – I have no idea how things should really be labeled, sorry!

While this show was interesting, it was also rather different from what I expected … perhaps less traditional than the flamenco I've been previously exposed to? The dance component was de-emphasized so much as to be almost completely absent. In fact, except for the percussionist's solo bit, the only piece that included dance in any major way was the one with a guy pantomiming a toreador routine. I probably would have gotten more out of this show if I understood Spanish better … one more thing to work on!
