The Alboreá is a song marking the dawn after two newlyweds have spent their first night together. In verses of four six-syllable lines and a chorus, this is one of the most private and deeply rooted forms in Gypsy culture. Here, the Cantaora Magdalena Montañes sings “La Marelu” on Spanish TV accompanied by guitarist Paco Cepero.

Shot in New York City, in the late 1950s, the images document a party attended by members of the famed Ballet Español de Ximenez-Vargas. Dancers include (from top to bottom): an unidentified man, Carmen Rivas, Antonio Hector de Jesus, and Maria Alba (Flamenco dance star who studied with Mariquita Flores and by 1957 or so was dancing with Ximenez-Vargas).
