New Delhi/Madrid, Nov 12 (IANS/EFE) After a successful performance in New Delhi, the second edition of the "Las Minas Flamenco Tour" will move to Mumbai Friday.
The show, called "Suite Flamenca" is the latest event in the internationalisation of the "La Unión Minas Flamenco Festival", which was launched in May last year in the cities of Jodhpur and New Delhi and later visited Brussels, Luxembourg and Tokyo.
"The festival began its international adventures in India for one fundamental reason: everything started in India," Francisco Bernabe, mayor of La Unión and president of the Cante de las Minas Foundation, said at a ceremony in Madrid ahead of the troupe's departure for India.
"It's where the roots of this great phenomenon that is Flamenco lie."
The performers in the show consist of three winners of the Minas Flamenco Festival: two dancers, Eduardo Guerrero and Fuensanta Fresneda "La Moneta" and an instrumentalist, Oscar Manuel.
They are accompanied by two singers, Juan Manzano "El Coco", Gullermo Campos Jimenez "Morenito Illora" and two guitarists, Luis Mariano and Fran Turner.
The India tour started in New Delhi Tuesday.
