Flamenco, as you will know, is a genuine Spanish art, and to be more exact a genuine Southern Spanish art. It exists in three forms: Cante, the song, Baile, the dance, and Guitarra, the guitar. Gypsies are very often named as its fathers, and (it can at least) be taken for certain that they played an important part in its creation. However The popular songs and dances of Andalusia have also influenced early Flamenco considerably. Certainly there were other influences, too, which is not surprising in a country that has been dominated by most diverse cultures and civilizations during its different historical eras. There were the legendary Tartessos, and then seven centuries of Musliminfluenced Flamenco. Important thing to know is that the cradle of flamenco is certainly in western Andalucia, and there are few better places for flamenco than Seville. occupation which hardly could have passed without leaving traces. All that, directly or indirectly.
