The 2004 Festival Chivas Regal de Danza offers five visions of flamenco and Spanish dance

Joaquín Cortés, Sara Baras and Belén Maya, among others, will participate at the event

Flamenco-world.com, June 2004

Whilst the first edition of the Chivas Regal Dance Festival showcased leading figures from the internacional scene, this year's festival sees flamenco and Spanish dance in the limelight. From 6th July to 5th September 2004, five companies who embody the current state of Spanish dance will each be taking their place on stage at Madrid's Teatro Lope de Vega. Mayte Martín and Belén Maya will present ‘Flamenco de Cámara’, Antonio Márquez will perform ‘Noche Flamenca’, Ballet Español de Murcia take their production ‘Penélope’, Joaquín Cortés and his Gitana Cortés Company present ‘De amor y odio’ and Sara Baras will perform ‘Sueños’. This event, organized by CIE Stage Holdings, brought together 40,000 spectators at the last edition, drawn to Madrid by dance icons such as Maximiliano Guerra, Julio Bocca and María Pagés - the only artist to fly the flag for flamenco.
