“Banderillas De Tiniebla” was a commission from my “brother,” Master and mentor Félix Grande for the anniversary issue of “Cuadernos Hispanoamericanos” dedicated to Federico García Lorca in 1986. This was my first glimpse into Flamenco, and I titled it in homage to the “Lament for Ignacio Sánchez Mejías.” “Aires De Minera,” “Petenera,” and “Pasodoble” coexist in its structure.
