XV Festival de Cante de Las Minas. La Union.
Tirititrans
The first gala of the festival, after a "rhetorical" inaugural speech, had
the air of a puzzle without enigma.
And also with air conditioning, for the first time at the cathedral.
With elegance, Panseco was dressed in black with sparks of gold and his "tarantos"
had the violet color of the mountains of this land of pyrites.
To the three-dimensional dance of Eva la Yerbabuena is added the time, a different
proportion, a dimension of the "compas" (rhythm).
The temporal labyrinth of flamenco is blended with the puzzle of its different
styles.
In Flamenco, what Foucault "la vibracion del archivo" (the vibration
of the archive) is produced.
And a trembling was felt at La Union when Esperanza Fernandez recuperated the
magic touch of one of the first "seguiriyeros", one of those who shined in the
early centuries of this art.
