Emilio Maya's visit to London

Hi guys, Thought I'd just let you know how Emilio's visit to London went. I'd organised a course for him to teach (12 intermediate students, 9 advanced, plus some observers). He taught some great technique exercises, some pretty challenging tangos, bulerias, solea and a beautiful seguiriyas falseta, and the students all went home happy. The most amazing bit for me was when he was teaching a structure for Seguiriyas and he sang while the students played. Emilio has a really nice voice. And on Saturday evening we saw a video from a previous visit to the London Pena, where he danced in the fin de fiesta - and he can dance as well! It's just not fair is it? On the Sunday evening there was a Pena performance with Emilio, violinist Maya, a second guitarist Ramon Ruiz, and singer Javier Macias. Dancing was Juan Polvillo (from Malaga?), joined for the fin de fiesta by Anita la Maltesa. Needless to say it was sold out, with people standing all around the back and sides, and people turned away at the door. It was certainly the most successful Pena in the year and a bit that I've been involved. However I'm now totally wiped out and have come to work for a rest Ailsa
