DIRECTORS’ QUOTES TOWARDS CAMBIO DE TERCIO

“CAMBIO DE TERCIO means it can work out, means that we can speak, we can have differentprojects and collaborate among other professionals and it shows what can be done and this is theproof. For me, the most important matter about the creation of Cambio de Tercio is in the final

result, our best artistic creation…” ROJAS

“The choreography is a mixture of tradition and modernity and we are very pleased to haveworked with the guest’s choreographers Rocío Molina, Rafael Campayo and Manuel Liñan. I am

convinced that this is one of the best shows of our career.” RODRÍGUEZ

“Regarding the choreography, we did not wanted to look for discordant elements, our intentionshave been to look up to the traditional part of our art, I mean everything is already made up and

really what you have to do is to modernize what already exists…” ROJAS

“Our new show, Cambio de Tercio, came out from the idea of making a show related with theaesthetics and traditions of the flamenco roots. We wanted to get the inspiration from the seventies,the flamenco with flounce dresses and dots, wanting to give the freshness of the actual flamenco to

the aesthetics’s stereotypes of those times.” RODRÍGUEZ

“On the creative side we have collaborated with our assiduous team, David Pérez at lighting andVicente Soler at the dress design, with whom we manage to put together our ideas about the dresses

and made the show very special from the aesthetics point of view. The sound is also very special,designed by Victor Tomé, as we count with professional wireless equipment, all musicians interactwith the dancers during the show, there’s a lot of dynamism and movement on stage.” RODRÍGUEZ

“…we have carried out with lots of efforts such an ambitious project as CAMBIO DE TERCIO,a change of pace in our career and it has come true.” ROJAS

“...the only commitment we had was: with the flamenco, with the theatre, with the respect for theauduence and the art. We take the audience to a magical world, the world of the stage and the dance,

the language we speak, showing the transformation of how we are in and out of the stage.” RODRÍGUEZ



“They dazzled us with their talent, their presence and their immutable complicity…”Rosli Ayuso

El Mundo, Spain. 1.5.2007

“Creatively and musically they do much more than fulfill expectations,dominating the profession and controlling flamenco, they do not fail.”

La Vanguardia, Spain. 30.4.2007

“Nuevo Ballet Español vibrates in unison and communicates its love for dance.”Il Monferrato, Italy. 28.6.2002

“An enormous success and completely sold out for Nuevo Ballet Español!”Samantha Cipolla

La Tribuna, Italy. 28.2.2001

“…The two young talents that created and who now lead the Nuevo BalletEspañol, give a practical demonstration of how both serious work and

responsible production values are the necessary ingredients to establish adance company, and from that, examine the possibilities for a new style of

dance. Angel and Carlos dance with soul, they take care with their form andtheir gestures, and they never fall into the excesses of pseudo-folklore, or a

desire to be too contemporary that so damage this genre of dance. And if it is virtuosity that we are talking about, we can already class these two as new stars.”

Roger SalasEl País, Spain. 13.11.1998
