Angelita Concierto
Flamenco is an El
Cid original. El Cid is excited to have Angelita back to perform traditional
Flamenco where members of her Flamenco dance company will join her.  Special guest, one of the original owners of
El Cid, Juan Talavera will perform with Angelita and singer Antonio de Jerez on
Friday, November 29 and again on Saturday, November 30 with Angelita and singer
Reyes on Saturday. Witness the classic style of pure
flamenco dance in an environment reminiscent of its heritage.

Noche
en Triana features
Antonio Triana and special guests. The cuadro flamenco forms on stage against a
backdrop of drumming handclaps, a voice moans the cante jondo, that pure
essence of Andalusian song. Dancers strike the tablao with thundering footwork.
Tension mounts as the performers unleash their fiery improvisations to the
compelling rhythms of the guitar. This is the native art of Triana, where
flamenco has a long tradition, where rhythm is life.
