| | Flamenco, old and new - The Boston Globe |
 | | Flamenco, which combines Arab, Jewish, Gypsy, and Spanish elements that developed in the southern region of Andalusia more than 200 years ago, has undergone enormous changes over the last 10 years. |
 | | As a result, flamenco's popularity has greatly increased in Spain, where many have had their fill of traditional flamenco and prefer new, more choreographed interpretations. |
 | | In ''Flamenco Directo," the widely praised work they'll present in Boston, they fuse the multiple dance styles they've been trained in: flamenco, ballet, jazz, classical Spanish, and modern dance. |
