The flamenco flower didn\u2019t bloom overnight, I suspect. Imagine going to bed on a Wednesday night in Tokyo, unaware and ignorant of the immense flamenco reality. Then waking up on Thursday, opening the white Japanese curtains and, lo and behold, there\u2019s the Garden of Venus, with hundreds of local aficionados looking for the flower they love, trying to emulate <strong>Manuel Torres<\/strong>\u00a0or <strong>Antonio Chac\u00f3n<\/strong> <em>por malague\u00f1as<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>No, it definitely didn\u2019t happen that way. Yet, we can follow a series of historical milestones which had a decisive influence in the birth of that passion, or rather interest, for flamenco things. We have to remember that <em>baile<\/em> and guitar have always served as the battering rams for <em>cante<\/em> whenever flamenco has gone beyond Spain\u2019s borders. They have the advantage of rhythm, visuals and the universal language of music, without the cultural and language barriers that exist outside the gates of Andalusia. Interest in <em>cante<\/em>, if it happens at all, comes after.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u00abRecent studies mention sixty thousand flamenco students spread among six hundred and fifty flamenco academies in the country. Just in Tokyo there are more flamenco academies than in all of Spain\u00bb<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>La Argentina and Pilar L\u00f3pez<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The first time that a Spanish dance company performed in Japan was in 1929, courtesy of Antonia Merc\u00e9\u00a0<strong>La Argentina<\/strong>. This happened in Tokyo, part of an international tour featuring the re-enactment of <em>El Amor Brujo y Andaluc\u00eda<\/em>. She was joined by <strong>Pastora Imperio<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Vicente Escudero<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Miguel Molina<\/strong>. Among the public, a young dancer of Japanese <em>but\u014d <\/em>dance was shot with Cupid\u2019s invisible arrow and fell in love with Spanish dance forever. His name was <strong>Kazuo \u014cno<\/strong>\u00a0(1906 \u2013 2010), the unrivalled master and guru of that oriental art form. Almost fifty years later, in 1977, Kazuo premiered his production <em>Admiring La Argentina<\/em>, which was awarded the Japanese critics\u2019 prize of that year.<\/p>\n<p>Spain\u2019s golden age of <em>cante<\/em> was coming to an at the time when La Argentina was touring Japan. <strong>Manuel Centeno<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jos\u00e9 Cepero<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Juanito Mojama<\/strong>, <strong>Ni\u00f1o Marchena<\/strong>\u00a0and <strong>Ni\u00f1o de Caracol<\/strong>\u00a0were being acclaimed on the stages, while <strong>Manuel Vallejo<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Ni\u00f1a de los Peines<\/strong> were well-established stars, following the steps of Antonio Chac\u00f3n, who had just passed away, and the brilliant Manuel Torres, who was approaching the end of his career. The first flamenco slate records arrived in Japan in those years, a historical footnote without any meaningful impact. It was the guitar of <strong>Carlos Montoya<\/strong>\u00a0(1903-1993) which became etched in the calendars of Japanese aficionados, as he performed a spectacular tour around the archipelago in 1932. The Japanese people were fascinated by flamenco guitar. The seed has been planted.<\/p>\n<p>Then, a war between brothers and two nuclear bombs littered streets and hearts with rubble on both sides of the globe. It wasn\u2019t until the 1960s when the first flamenco companies toured Japan. <strong>Pilar L\u00f3pez<\/strong> took her impressive world tour to that country in 1959, forever enthralling who would then become the best Japanese flamenco dancer of all time, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.komatubara.com\/yoko\/index2.html\"><strong>Yoko Komatsubara<\/strong><\/a>. The land then became fertile ground for <strong>Manolo Vargas<\/strong>, Rafael Romero\u00a0<strong>El Gallina<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Merche Esmeralda<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Cristina Hoyos<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>El G\u00fcito<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Paco de Luc\u00eda<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Camar\u00f3n de la Isla<\/strong>\u00a0to gather the empire of the Rising Sun\u2019s rich harvest in the following decade. They would inspire a generation of Japanese-born artists, the first Japanese <em>bailaores<\/em> of international renown. <strong>Yasuko Nagamine<\/strong>,\u200b\u00a0<strong>Masami Okada<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Shoji Kojima<\/strong>\u00a0or the above-mentioned <strong>Yoko Komatsubara<\/strong>, among others, didn\u2019t think twice before travelling to Andalusia to sharpen their skills.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Antonio Gades, Los Tarantos and Carmen<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>What about <strong>Antonio Gades<\/strong>? The importance of this <em>bailaor<\/em> from Alicante in the popularization of flamenco in Japan can\u2019t be understated. He featured in two landmark movies. In 1963, the premiere of Francisco Rovira-Beleta\u2019s film <strong><em>Los Tarantos<\/em><\/strong>, starring <strong>Carmen Amaya<\/strong>\u00a0and Antonio himself, caused a veritable commotion among the Japanese public, which then began travelling to Spain to know first-hand that unique art genre. In 1984, another movie, <strong><em>Carmen<\/em><\/strong>, directed by Carlos Saura, again featuring <strong>Antonio Gades<\/strong>, joined by <strong>Cristina Hoyos<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Pepa Flores<\/strong>\u00a0y\u00a0<strong>Laura del Sol<\/strong>, was awarded the best-film prize in Japan. From then on, Antonio Gades and Japan embraced each other forever. This <em>bailaor<\/em> toured the archipelago with his company in 1989, and again two years later.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u00abMario Maya, Angelita Vargas, Matilde Coral and Manuela Carrasco made baile flamenco so popular in Japan that Japanese people started to consider this art form as part of their own culture\u00bb\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take long until this love for flamenco became reciprocated. In 1988, the <strong><em>Bienal de Flamenco de Sevilla<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>invited several Japanese artists. On that occasion, <em>cantaor<\/em> Masanobu Takimoto<strong>\u00a0<em>El Cartero de Osaka<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0accompanied the <em>baile<\/em> of <strong>Keiko Suzuki<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Eiko Takahashi<\/strong>\u00a0and Atsuko Kamata<strong>\u00a0<em>Ami<\/em>,<\/strong>\u00a0who in 1995 became the first foreigner to be awarded a prize in the <em>Concurso Nacional de C\u00f3rdoba<\/em>. Most Spanish flamenco artists typically travel to Japan at least one or twice every year. <strong>Mario Maya<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Angelita Vargas<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Matilde Coral<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Manuela Carrasco<\/strong>\u00a0made <em>baile flamenco<\/em> so popular in Japan that Japanese people started to consider this art form as part of their own culture. Cante also became popular, led by <strong>Pansequito<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Aurora Vargas<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Rancapino<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Esperanza Fern\u00e1ndez <\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Remedios Amaya<\/strong>. Virtually every renowned flamenco guitarist has performed in Japan, so it\u2019s pointless to try to make a list.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The world\u2019s second flamenco superpower<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Nowadays, Japan is the world\u2019s second flamenco superpower, just behind Spain, and it\u2019s perhaps the first country in the world regarding flamenco productions. Recent studies mention <strong>sixty thousand flamenco students<\/strong> spread among <strong>six hundred and fifty flamenco academies<\/strong> in the country. Just in Tokyo there are more flamenco academies than in all of Spain. To have an idea of how strong is the Japanese interest in flamenco, bear in mind that there are two national flamenco federations: the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anif.jp\/\">Asociaci\u00f3n Nipona de Flamenco<\/a><\/em><strong>\u00a0(ANIF)<\/strong>, meant for all aficionados interested in the development of this art form, and the <strong>University Flamenco Federation<\/strong>, founded in 1995, encompassing over ten universities and financed by the yearly fees of its members, who every summer lodge together in the futuristic city of Tateyama to enjoy flamenco around the clock.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17126\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17126\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17126\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/expoflamenco-foto-asociacion-nipona-flamenco.jpg\" alt=\"Asociaci\u00f3n Nipona de Flamenco.
