Kick up your heels

A workshop presentation, “The Secret Language of Flamenco,” by the Hudson Valley Flamenco Festival drew a rapt audience to The Millbrook Library on Saturday, April 5, to learn more about the improvisational percussive dance form. Demonstrating the unchoreographed communication between dance performer and musician were Anna Librada, creative director of Hudson Valley Flamenco Festival, and guitarist/vocalist Ricardo Sanchez. The state-funded program, administered by Arts Mid-Hudson, will return to Millbrook in October for another performance event.
