GobsmackedMar 08, 2008
My taste in music is very broad and changes like the wind pending on the mood I'm in. For example, I love Jazz, blues, R&B, Soul, Classical, Rapt, Rock, Middle Eastern, Indian & Flamenco of course.
Whilst surfing the TV channels via my remote control, just by chance I landed on Salome' I was totally Gobsmacked watching Aida Gomez performing with the other dances together with the Flamenco guitarists, drummers, percussionists etc, absolutely incredible and fantastic.
I immediately tried several of my local music stores to no avail.Thank God someone mentioned Amazon because Ebay was also a fizzer. I've just placed the order today and can't wait to relive the experience again.
Raymond.

Riveting!Feb 14, 2008
I am not a ballet fan. While being busy in my room I spotted a dancer on TV. The expressive way of her movements had something magnetic in it and made me drop what I was doing and watched the show to the end. After that I went to GOOGLE on my computer, got the details and ordered the copy from you.

Amazing flamenco version of a biblical storyJan 11, 2007
The film has far exceeded my expectations - watched it at one breath, and loved every frame of it. Beautiful decorations, amazing dancers; Aida Gomez incredible as Salome; great director's and operator's work. Every scene, every movement is deeply thought through - it is also interesting to see the "kitchen" of creating the dance performance, as well as tremendous work of different people involved. Will be enjoyed by lovers of flamenco and modern dance. Saura is on the top, as usual.
