What I liked
I liked all of it! Bravo!
What I didn't like
The stage could have been a little wider. It felt a bit cramped for Aylin’s dancing.
My overall impression
Aylin Bayaz danced the flamenco with poetic grandeur. At times she reminded me of a whirling dervish. She would spin and twirl her body, forcing the fabric of her dress or a scarf to rise up and twist, make mesmerizing shapes. Her twirling was lit up like a fire under the bright rose gold stage lights. Her hands and fingers would punctuate the end of a twirl with a twisting curlicue motion, as if they were blowing in an Andalusian wind.
Raul Mannola — wow! He is amazing. Love!
I know how to strum a guitar and make a few chords. This guy’s playing is just mind boggling! I kept wondering how can remember so many notes, such intricate fingering. Get a sneak peak here: https://youtu.be/de3zCC55MmQ.
