Hi amsdon,

Thanks for much for the information. I am so disappointed to miss her by two weeks when I am in Seville in October. I would dearly love to see her dance again...

Traviata,

Your consolation is you should be there for the end of the Biennal in Sevilla. Hopefully you have reserved some shows already?...

LUCKY YOU!

And just because your name "Traviata" implies an extra special apprecialtion for the "cante" Here is a clip of one of the artists of the Biennial, Arcangel, who I would love to see in person..

Also the Rafaela Carrasco show should be good.

amsdon,

I am days behind....we are in Segovia the 13th and 14th and move to Seville on the 15th to the 18th. I am determined to eat, sleep, and drink as much Flamenco as I can while there.....I have lots of notes from these pages and many of your words will be going with me. I have already listened to the cante you sent twice! Thank you!

Oh well....in any case I am so jelous would love to go with you.
YOu will sure get to see and hear alot of good flamenco. Even better without the crowds.

I loved Segovia have you been there before?

Be sure to take the notes on the flamenco bars etc for SEvilla .....and be sure to write to us here when you get back re your recs...

One of the most challenging parts of our visit is knowing where to go when...you have now made that so much easier with the info you just sent. This is a first time visit to Segovia and Seville...it is a bit overwhelming to know where to begin and with limited time, I want to make good choices....but, I know I'll want to go back as soon as I leave it!

Thanks so much.

My pleasure! I live vicariously through these Fodors pages I have only been to Segovia once and Sevilla twice (in real life)

You will love both I am sure.
Have you posted your whole itinerary here someplace for us?
