Review Excerpts - Ms. Granados
American Bolero Dance Company in the Press.
"Gabriela Granados is astonishing. An extremely attractive flamenco dancer, she also has impeccable classical technique, a wonderful comedic sense, and the ambition, energy and skill to guide the American Bolero Dance Company.... Granados brought the house down with her soleá."
- Nancy Heller, Flamenco International Magazine January- March 2000, London, England
"...Besides being a virtuoso performer and a choreographer with an authenticity that is clearly evident, [Gabriela Granados] has conceived a production that is in extraordinarily good taste--beginning with the costumes she designed...."
- Phyllis Goldman, Back Stage
November 26 - December 2, 1999
New York, New York
"...Gabriela Granados' own radiance, beauty and easy command of craft and space. She is a rare example these days, of a dancer whose elegant yet devilish femininity is heightened by her strong, emotional attack.
- Deirdre Towers, Dance Films Association, Inc.
November 1999
New York, New York
"...Gabriela is one of the most significant representatives of this dance genre, she preserves all the traditional styles of the Spanish dance while at the same time, opening new avenues with her creative choreographies in the world of contemporary flamenco..."
- Athinorama (newspaper)
January 1999 Athens, Greece
"Olé! Olé! to the American Bolero Dance Company! Another Spanish dance company hits the New York stage with gusto! Gabriela Granados' production...was nothing less than spectacular ... Gabriela Granados' fiery Soleá was the height of daring theatricality. Glorious in its outpouring of energetic dancing, Granados stage presence resonates with power and intricate detail..."
- Eva Lopez, Attitude
Spring/Summer 1998 New York, New York
"Gabriela Granados' breadth of experience was evident in Olé! Olé!, an exuberant and stylish program. Ms. Granados' stunning soleá was a tour de force of shifting, building dynamics for this very musical dancer."
- Jennifer Dunning, The New York Times
January 1998 New York, New York
"The party scenes in Traviata ... glitter with visual effect and throb with well-choreographed activity. Dancer Gabriela Granados' stylized flamenco and the bawdy cancan of Flora Bervoix...stand out in the whirl of movement and swirl of color in...superbly staged choral scenes."
- Clark Bustard, Richmond Times-Dispatch
1994 Richmond, Virginia
"Gabriela Granados vibrates with dance. Her body molded by infinite interpretations, is all rhythm from the fingers that draws figures in the air to the feet that pull up tapping, pirouettes, turns and steps. The audience turned mad asking for more and more."
- Elvira de Galvez, El Comercio (newspaper)
