features dramatic movement, percussive precision and passionate live

exploration that guides the audience toward the mystical experience called
<I>duende</I>, or connection to the spirit,” explains Illarde.
“<I>Duende</I> is palpable to everyone present. It is the goal of every
flamenco event, and it is flamenco’s heart and soul.”</SPAN></FONT></P>
