Antonio Canales (Antonio Gómez de los Reyes, Triana Sevilla 1961). He is one of the breed of modern flamenco dancers that have created their own style of dance, a style that is far removed from the traditional styles from whence their art has developed.
J. Carmona “Habichuela” (Juan Carmona Contrera, Lyon, France 1963)
Niňo del Tupé / El Viejín (José Jiménez Abadía, Madrid 1963)
The FARRUCA is a dramatic flamenco dance characterized by fast turns, quick intense footwork (zapateado), held lifts and falls, dramatic poses and bursts of hand movements (filigrana) often with a flat hand. Its origin is traditionally associated with the folklore of northern Spain, and it was brought to Andalusia in the middle of the 19th century by the young men who went to that region to work as seasonal workers. "Farruco/a" is a slang term used in Andalusia and Latin America to refer to someone from the Spanish provinces of Galicia or Asturias who is far from home. An instrumental adaptation of the farruca was developed by guitarist Ramón Montoya and flamenco dancer Faíco in the 20th century.
