SUMMARY:Ballet Folklórico de México\, de Amalia Hernández
DESCRIPTION: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.  \nFounded 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.  \nHer 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.  \nAmalia 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.  \nToday\, 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.
