ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The lives of flamenco dancers at the National Institute of Flamenco (NIF) were upended in the last year with in-person performances halted for months.
Yet, the cante could still be heard – though faint and in the background.
The vibration from dancer’s steps couldn’t be felt, but each dancer’s passion continued to grow.
