Legends Of Spanish & Flamenco Dance

When I started to prepare the introduction to my first book, The Golden Age of the Spanish Dance, I mentally hesitated. I expected to write about these acknowledged early artists from the viewpoint of an outsider looking into history. However, it became apparent to me that I had to fill gaps and include my thoughts, opinions, and observations within the historical storyline. This second book, Legends of Spanish & Flamenco Dance, includes individual encounters with Pilar Lopez and her stories about her sister La Argentinita and the artists that performed in their company. Then studying with Rosario Perez and meeting with Antonio Ruiz Soler added more history to the pages. Many dancers who crossed paths with these icons of dance are included in this chronology of Spanish dance. I originally arrived in Madrid to study Spanish dance, but I became so fascinated by my teachers and began making notes and asking questions with the idea of authoring books on the Spanish dance.
