Faustino Rios, son of guitarist Roberto Rios and a native of Mexico, was also introduced to flamenco as a child. At the age of ten, Faustino began studying Spanish dance and flamenco with Ramon de los Reyes, and had his on-stage debut with the Ramon de los Reyes Spanish Dance Theatre at the age of fourteen. While continuing his dance training at the High School for the Performing Arts in Houston, Texas, he continued his study of flamenco with Rogelio Rodriguez, Nana Lorca, Luisa Triana and Jose Greco. At the age of seventeen, Mr. Greco invited Faustino to join his company. Since then, Faustino has performed with Jose Greco and Jose Greco II, Maria Benitez, Charo, and the Boston-based companies of Ramon de los Reyes and Omayra Amaya. This appearance with the Christmas Revels represents Faustino's return to the mainland United States following a four-year tour performing internationally with Charo's Flamenco Review.
