Their Spanish dancing created a sensation at the Liege Exposition in Belgium in 1928, this was their first public performance, they dissolved the teaming in December of 1952, reportedly due to a dispute or misunderstanding.

   They had performed internationally and were dubbed 'Los Chavalillos Sevillanos' by Latin America and "the Kids from Seville" by Americans. They made their first U.S. appearance in October, 1940. Columbia Concerts managed them and their small troupe in international concerts and plays. They have performed in many movies over the years together and apart.
