Les Sévillans in Place Carnot, Carcassonne

The Band and Dancers below waiting to perform on a very hot Saturday afternoon in Place Carnot.






Concentration before it starts.

Pretty hand gestures.



Shadow of the dance!
I've got my eye on you!







A bit of a gossip!

A Man of Fans with his Van!!

Girl in the black stood out from all the rest...a talent in the making!

A quick drag on the dummy!!





Sévillan dancing seemed to be more popular with the male dancers than the Flamenco!

Resting in between dances!







A very talented young Sévillan dancer...destined to become a professional! She had such style and presence for one so young.

Flamenco in Place Carnot, Carcassonne

Beautiful Flamenco dancing in Place Carnot yesterday. Glorious colours and styles of dresses.



A great turnout for the Flamenco Dancers and musicians.

High energy dancing in 37 degrees! Phew! I was boiling and I was just a spectator!


I loved this one...not so traditional but very elegant.














They certainly needed the fans.







Beautiful hand gestures.



The only male dancer applauding this wonderful dancer.



Beautiful Spanish music. The girl had a wonderful, soulful voice.

Vibrant, contrasting colours.













Lots of different ornate haircombs (Mantilla) in a number colours
