Fusing Latin dance with classic and contemporary techniques, Ballet Hispanico creates a new style of concert dance in which theatricality and passion propel every move. Founded in 1970 by Tina Ramirez, the New York-based company is now under the direction of Eduardo Vilaro, who continues the tradition of supporting new and old masters of contemporary dance and exploring the diverse voice of Latin culture. "It seemed like one was witnessing a new dance form — ballet moves turned into traditional Latin dance... Ballet Hispanico moved with a crisp attack and flowed beautifully all night long." - LaCrosse Tribune
