According to promoters, “The present time fades before your eyes
and thus commences our journey through the past. The Lords of
Heaven and Earth come back to life, the Jaguars, the Gods born
of human flesh, thirty different cultures that blossomed in
centuries once, leaving behind a trail of color in which Amalia
Hernández was inspired to create the Ballet Folklórico of
México.”
International success has been achieved during the first tours
and has been maintained through the fifty years of incessant
artistic endeavors. Starting from the sixties, Amalia Hernández
and the Ballet Folklórico of México have developed the
choreographies for 40 ballets, composed of 76 folk dancers.
The music, technical perfection, sophisticated wardrobe and
original choreographies, create this singular character of the
Ballet. Amalia Hernández and the Ballet Folklórico of México
have been distinguished with more than 200 awards in recognition
to their artistic merits.
The Ballet was initiated by performing a weekly program on
television, sponsored by the Mexican government. Since the year
of 1959 it is being permanently presented at the Palace of Fine
Arts, foremost stage for Art México City.
Tickets are $50 $40 and $30 ($3 Preservation Fee included)
