Ballet Nacional De España

"Not ballet, but definitely national, the Ballet Nacional de España aspires to a post-Franco ideal: to be a distinctively Spanish company that can accommodate regional and historical differences, as well as modernise and innovate." (http://guardian.co.uk/)

Ballet Nacional De Espana


"The company represents all the original dance forms on the Spanish peninsula. They are based on folk and popular dances and also classicalSpanish dance. That's not ballet, by the way. Spanish dance is very rich and, although flamenco is the most well-known, we have other forms of dance."
Elvira Andrés, interview with Stuart Sweeney, 2003
