In September 2000, Micaela and Miguelito gave a full-length concert at Salisbury State University to kick off their Fall Concert series to a very enthusiastic audience of more than 350 people!
Micaela first studied flamenco dance with teacher Ena Camargo and has taken various workshops by visiting artists such as La Conja and Susana di Palma.
Miss Moreno performs occasionally at the Andalucía Restaurant in Rockville on Thursdays and at Catalán West on Saturdays in downtown DC. In the summer Micaela and guitarist Michael Pérez sometimes perform on the boardwalk in beautiful Old Town Alexandria.

In case you're wondering, the flag to the left represents Colombia, the country which Micaela is very proud to claim as the source of her heritage.
