Their performance will be accompanied by Flamenco singer (cantaor) Jesús Montoya, one of the best of the handful of authentic Spanish Flamenco singers living in the country. Choreographer, leader and founder of Zorongo Flamenco School and Theater, Susana di Palma, will include a dance performance. Susana di Palma was the only American who had been accepted by the legendary Flamenco Company La Singla.
