A great interview with Luis Maravilla. Thank you for posting. Enjoyed reading his stories being around the 19th/20th century greats and the flamenco evolutions at the time. 35 years ago he saw the decline of cante, though still had hope! "The cante today? I don’t know. I don’t know. Look at Camarón who — well, he’s here (“bueno, esta ahi“). There are other singers with names, but… well, remember you’re talking with a 76-year-old man who has lived in other eras, and the present one doesn’t say much to him. I know there’s Camarón, Enrique Morente, El Lebrijano… but I hope someone new arrives and remedies the situation, and raises up the art again. Because the cante can’t die. You have to renovate and enrich it…"
