Holy cow. How you get that gig? Good luck.
Chance....brook zern gave a lecture/viewing on my fav subject...Rito y Geografia....at the smithsonian. It was on a sunday afternoon free, so I showed up. I met brook and he said he heard about me from Norman (yes our Norman from the foro here) and asked if during the lecture I would demo some playing, which of course I did at the end. The director of the Orchestra happened to be there and saw me play, and later contacted me about his idea, since Esperanza will be singing the Falla stuff and there will be a similar lecture about the music in the same venue at the smithsonian.
In short, never turn down flamenco opportunities as you don't know what might come out of it. Always keep a guitar handy![;)]
