| | Dance | Flamenco neat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | The first of this season’s World Music/Crash Arts dance series, Noche Flamenca was beautifully crafted to let you see the dance itself, hear the music, and appreciate the distinctive qualities of the dancers (Soledad Barrio and Isabel Bayon), singers (Silverio Heredia and Manuel Gago), and guitarists (Paco Cruz, Miguel Perez, and Jesus Torres). |
 | | You could savor them all in nearly equal measure, and they all dabbled in each other’s specialties from time to time. |
 | | Miguel Perez accompanied Silverio Heredia’s extreme quavering, sobbing vocalise, and Heredia and Manuel Gago engaged in a sung dialogue of laments and consolations, facing each other across the stage. |
