Ramon Amira -> RE: Whatever happened to Luis Maravilla? (Apr. 13 2013 3:38:50)

Well, I guess he died by now, along with the rest of his contemporaries – Sabicas, Nino Ricardo, Pepe Martinez, Carlos Montoya, Melchor de Marchena, Mario Escudero, etc. If not, he would be just about a hundred years old. I’m not sure, but I think his daughter was the bailaora, Luisa Maravilla, who was married to Donn Pohren, the author of “The Art of Flamenco.” Luis was a fine flamenco guitarist, who accompanied many singers and dancers. He also played classical guitar. A long time ago I had a two LP set of his playing, which also included sheet music for both records. Ramon
