A choreographic symbiosis with universal consequences during the Spanish Golden Age.

There is no need to emphasize Spain’s dominant role in the choreographic landscape of European courts during the 17th century.

To cite just one example, Voltaire himself acknowledged that before Louis XIV, everything at the French court was Spanish.

Esquivel Danza&Música—a pioneering Spanish company dedicated to reviving and disseminating historical dance from the 15th to the 18th centuries—has created En un lugar de la Danza ("In a Place of Dance").

This production offers audiences an opportunity to experience and appreciate Spain’s intangible cultural heritage through the dances that once defined the choreographic landscape of Cervantes’s works.

A demonstration of Spanish dance from the Golden Age. The new generation of ESQUIVEL (Dance & Music) returns to perform in a spectacular setting: the Plaza de Santiago Rusiñol in the Royal Site of Aranjuez (Madrid).

Dances such as the *Pavana Española*, the *Españoleta*, and "Laura Suave." Acrobatic dances like "El Villano" and world-renowned dances such as "Las Folías" will delight the audience at this unique event, held as part of the Summer Courses at Rey Juan Carlos University (Aranjuez Campus).
