BALLET FOLKLÓRICO DE MÉXICO

For over seven decades, Amalia Hernández’s Ballet Folklórico de México has positioned itself as the most emblematic folkloric dance ensemble in Mexico and around the world.

Founded in 1952 by the dancer and choreographer Amalia Hernández, the Ballet Folklórico de México revolutionized the concept of traditional dance and transformed the history of Mexican dance, laying the groundwork and setting the tone for thousands of dance troupes in Mexico and abroad with the characteristic seal of its creator. Amalia Hernández carried out in-depth research in the different states of the Mexican Republic, studying not only the traditional dances, but also the music, customs and typical costumes and then imbuing them with new meaning, recreating them, staging them and spreading knowledge of them through the theater. Through avant-garde thinking, she designed a show and created a cultural management model characterized by efficiency and professionalism on stage. Amalia Hernández’s work was not limited to choreography, as she was also a great businesswoman and cultural promoter who, through her brilliant proposals, managed to rediscover and revalue the richness of Mexican dance.

Colorful costumes from Ballet Folklórico de México

Her hard work resulted in a group with a sense of discipline, perseverance and extraordinary teamwork that became the first professional folkloric dance company. Transcendental to the history of dance in Mexico, it also created a cultural management model never seen before in the country.

Amalia Hernández’s Ballet Folklórico de México has managed to garner attention for Mexican culture and creators, acquiring enormous value through creative excellence that is comparable to other great artistic creations around the world.

Today, her repertoire has become a classic, but one that is renewed, transformed and enriched with the passage of time. With more than 45 million spectators and countless recognitions, Amalia Hernández’s artistic legacy remains strong among large audiences, Mexican and from around the world, thanks to more than 120 original choreographies with great technical rigor, elaborate traditional costumes and wonderful dancers. Consolidating itself as the best company in the world of its kind.

PROGRAM

LOS MAYAS

This ballet has been wrought out of several legends taken from the sacred books of Mayans, the Popol-Vuh, and the Chilam Balam. The main character is X-tabay, the beautiful goddess of hunting, who also seduces and hunts men; Another legend is that one of the Three Princely Brothers disappears mysteriously and thereby incites his other two brothers to take a terrible vengeance on the world, and the legend of Nic-te, a mortal woman whose role is to compel the return of a departed lover.

SONES ANTIGUOS DE MICHOACÁN

The first folkloric ballet created by Amalia Hernandez. Michoacan is one of the provinces that disputed the supremacy of Mexican music and popular dance. This brief mosaic begins with the Michoacan version of jarabes, which have their reminiscences of “jota” and “zarabanda”, tell us the unmistakable signs of their miscegenation.

TARIMA DE TIXTLA

Based on the original dances of the Guerrero state, Tarima de Tixtla is one of the most colorful and cheerful choreographies in the Ballet Folklórico de México’s repertoire. The echo of the tapping shoes shakes the wooden stand, representing with joy the warmth of the people from Guerrero. The swirl of the skirts and the tapping of the dancers’ feet show an incessant dialogue through dance.

LA REVOLUCIÓN

This ballet is dedicated to the “soldaderas”, also called Adelitas, women who had a decisive role in the Mexican Revolution, as they took their lives and few belongings to the war scenes. In quick contrast, the aristocrats are seen in a joyous celebration, when a group of rebels breaks into the party, prepared to fight and march towards their destiny: the Revolution

CHARREADA

One of the most deeply rooted traditions in Mexico is the Charrería, which arises from the equestrian and livestock activities around the country. Declared Intangible Heritage by UNESCO, Charrería is considered an art and discipline where men and women demonstrate their courage with great feats that took place in the old farms of Mexico.

PROGRAM

FIESTA EN TLACOTALPAN

Spanish culture has a strong influence on Jarocha dance and music, which is why there is percussive footwork in every choreography, a distinctive move of flamenco. This fusion can be appreciated during the celebration of the Virgen de la Candelaria, where the streets are filled with mojigangas, fandango dancers, jaraneros and beautiful women who wear the typical Veracruz costume.

LA VIDA ES JUEGO

This dance is based on Mexican toys and games. The game is controlled by a very charismatic devil that handles all characters as if they were marionettes and with their cords, he manipulates the way to determine their destiny. Reality and fantasy interact when the devil uses both, “Cupid” and “Death” to perform a tangled love story between a bride, her groom and her lover.

LA DANZA DEL VENADO

The Deer Dance is an emblematic representation of the state of Sonora and is considered an Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO. The Deer Dance is a ritual performed before the hunting expeditions and reproduces the movements of the prey with amazing fidelity.

FIESTA EN JALISCO

The state of Jalisco is the land of the Charros, the Chinas, and the Mariachi, powerful symbols of Mexican identity. Pure Mexican culture is shown in the brilliant folklore of Jalisco, its music, its vigorous and refined dances, and in its dazzling and multicolored costumes.

WHO’S WHO

AMALIA HERNÁNDEZ was a dancer and choreographer, founder of the Ballet Folklórico de México in 1952.

From a very young age, she began a long journey through Mexican culture that would lead her to rescue the traditional dances around Mexico. She managed to project to the world the beauty of our country through movement, from pre Columbian cultures and Spanish influences to the revolutionary times. With her first performances in 1952, she obtained public recognition as a cultural representative of Mexico. Her great success established the Ballet in the Palace of Fine Arts as its permanent venue since October 11, 1959.

With more than 30 million spectators and countless recognitions, Amalia Hernández’s artistic legacy remains valid thanks to the more than 120 original choreographies with great technical difficulty, elaborate typical costumes and first-rate artists, consolidating the Ballet as the best dance company in the world in its genre.

Currently the Company is directed by Amalia’s grandson, Salvador López López and her youngest daughter Viviana Basanta Hernández.

SALVADOR LÓPEZ LÓPEZ is a businessman, promoter, Charro and sportsman whose participation in and commitment to his activities has always been outstanding.

He joined Amalia Hernández’s Ballet Folklórico de México in 1982, organizing tours in Europe and South America, as well as in the United States, Japan, Canada and the Dominican Republic, among others. These tours have amounted to more than six thousand performances for nearly twelve million spectators.

Due to his outstanding contribution, in 1986 Amalia Hernández appointed Salvador López as the legal representative and administrative director of the Ballet. Which meant that from this moment onwards he was tasked with the responsibility of operating the institution, as well as establishing strategies and projects to ensure its future.

While under Lopez’s management, the BFM has obtained important awards, including: The National Arts Award from the Mexican Government; the Tiffany Award in New York, the Gold Medal of Fine Arts, the Lo Nuestro Excellence Award from the México Unidos Foundation, the Las Lunas Award from the Auditorio Nacional, among others.

Likewise, López participated as a performer for the first time with the BFM during the Paris tour at Le Palais des Congrès in 1987. From this moment on he became the main “floreador” when the Ballet was on tour and during performances at the Palacio de Bellas Artes. Currently, due to the responsibilities outlined as part of his position, he only sporadically participates on special occasions.

In 1972 he joined the National Association of Charros as a member, having obtained two youth complete charro championships and several team leaders through his sporting participation. He was also a part of the National Youth Team starting in 1974 and the Senior Team from 1976 onwards, having also been a member of eight different boards of directors at the association. In parallel, his sports career includes having participated for 10 years in Charro competitions.

Likewise, he has won several national co-leaders. He was president of the National Association of Charros from 2004 to 2006. He was selected in the National Athletics Championship of 1979 and since 1991 he has trained for triathlons having participated in two IRONMAN competitions (4 km swim, 180 km bicycle and 42 km run) in Germany and Canada. He has also been national Sub-Champion in the triathlon of 1995, 1999 and 2001 and was awarded third place on a national scale in 1998 and 2000.

HERNANDEZ Artistic Director of Amalia Hernández’s Ballet Folklórico de México and General Director of the Ballet Mėxico en Movimiento.

Born in Mexico City, to teacher Amalia Hernández and Argentine writer Joaquín Basanta, she began her dance

studies at the age of five, both in traditional Mexican dance at the Ballet Folklórico de México, and in the classical dance profession with Nellie Happei. At the age of 13 she joined the National Ballet of Mexico under Maestra Guillermina Bravo, where she studied contemporary dance. Later she studied, both modern and contemporary jazz technique abroad, with teachers such as Alvin Nikolai, Murray Louise, Hania Holm, Alvin Ailey and Horton Dunham. In 1977, she returned to be part of the Ballet Folklórico de México, as a dancer and traced the ballets out of repertoire, strengthening the future of the Company created by teacher and choreographer Amalia Hernández.

In 1979 she was named Principal Dancer of the Ballet Folklórico de México and later Artistic Coordinator of the Company. A position she has held for more than 15 years, along with acting as director of the school of the aforementioned Ballet for 10 years. Since then she has carried out some of the research that was essential for the creation of Maestra Amalia Hernández’s ballets such as: Mexican Christmas, Sones y Gustos de Guerrero and Tlaxlala among others.

The artistic and professional career of Maestra Amalia Viviana Basanta Hernández as a dancer has continued to grow uninterruptedly throughout more than 25 years, with countless performances (tallying more than four thousand) in the most important arts venue in Mexico, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, not to mention on international tours and in guest appearances.

Maestra Amalia Viviana Basanta Hernández has received various awards such as the César Chávez Medal at Michigan State University in Lansing, Michigan and the Artistry of Mexico Recognition, awarded by the Congress of the United States of America. She was also awarded the Ulama Award after having been a member of the jury for more than 10 years at the Art and Culture Meeting, organized by the general directorate of Industrial Technologies, on behalf of the Ministry of Public Education.

She was also invited as a special guest by l’Ensemble National de Folklore, Les Sortileges in Montreal, Canada, as a soloist dancer.

Thanks to her successful participation as a member of the jury for more than 20 years, at the Meeting of Art and Culture of the D.G.E.T.I., and along with Maestro Rodolfo Muzquiz Fuentes, she received the Sor Juana Medal. The Mexican Association of Theater Critics, for the first time in the history of the organization and in regards to the area of dance, awarded the Teacher, Dancer, and Choreographer Amalia Viviana Basanta Hernández, a valuable recognition for her artistic career in 2010.

In 2002 she founded the Amalia Hernández Dance Academy, ACADEZ in Interlomas, Mexico, which has been a resounding success with more than 300 students having passed through its doors. Another of her unique projects, which continues to be active to date, is the Mexico in Motion Contemporary Dance Company, which she began in 2005

It should be noted that her choreographic work has gone beyond the borders of Mexico, through the creation and presentation of various staged performances such as: De Cara Al Mar with the Grandeza Mexicana Dance Company; Fandango y Danzón with the Resurrección Company in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A; and Leyenda de la Mulata de Córdoba (contemporary dance) with the Cleo Parker Robinson Company, in Denver, Colorado, U.S.A.

It is important to mention that Maestra Amalia Viviana Basanta Hernández continues to inspire, develop and teach at the Ballet Folklórico de México, through her valuable artistic direction as well as through the creation and staging of countless choreographies, such as: Mexican Christmas; Easter; the Old Man’s Conga; Danzón number 2 by Arturo Márquez, (presented at the National Auditorium in Mexico City); the Canasteras del Barrio de la Trinidad; Dance of the Feather by Amalia Hernández; and Pinotepa. She also contributes to and teaches at the school of this famous Ballet whose founder, Maestra Amalia Hernández, designated it a training center for folk dance dancers and tasked it with the dissemination of Mexican Culture through dance, both for our country as well as for the entire world.
