"The art of silence, the eloquence of the unstated."

"...Domingo Ortega is one of the biggest talents of his generation. Despite his obvious technical command, he knows and revels in the importance of subtlety and the rejection of acrobatics. God is in the details, and this apostle knows how to incorporate the best elements of Canales, Galván, Barón and Farruquito, without looking like any one of them. The art of silence, the eloquence of the unstated, fleeing at each moment from technical displays and the quest for easy applause, relying always on the power of compás. A dancer of clean and totally original lines, despite the diverse influences reflected. Domingo Ortega possesses the all-important virtue of knowing what he can do and never miscalculating, each movement is carried out to its ultimate consequences and every cell of his organism is accomplice to the task."
"deflamenco.com" February 2006 — Estela Zatania

When Domingo is not touring with Compañía Domingo Ortega he is one of the most sought after Flamenco teachers in Madrid at the world famous 'Amor de Dios' dance studio.

  • I have gotten his DVd titled Living Flamenco and he is the best dancer I have ever seen. He is wonderful and his style is so romantic.

  • He is the best male Flamenco dancer I have ever seen, I adore his style. He's so imaginative and creative, beautiful artist. I love the way he uses his hands and arms. I have never seen anyone use them the way he does, a natural creative genius. I would give just about anything to be one tenth as good as him.

  • thanks for posting this, I learned something just from watching him for this short clip. I am sure he is a good teacher. I have heard he is a marvelous dancer, and I don't doubt it. Thanks again.We need more of this to keep Flamenco alive. Ole!!

  • I once had the privilege to take some classes with Domingo. His work is very challenging. He compels you to go very deep into the rhythm to search for its subtleties. His demeanor is quiet and poised, always. His sister, Inmaculada, is also a brilliant dancer.
