Spain Flamenco performances of the soul





(Lead) in Spain, there are two landmark performance had to look at.

If that is too cruel too bloody bullfights, flamenco, you must not miss it.


Flamenco is originated from southern Spain-Andalucia-a comprehensive arts and dance music, set a deep song, guitar, dance art advantages.

Andalucia is a piece of land so rich, where almost all cultures are centralized: ancient Greece elements, Carthage, ancient Rome, Byzantium, Jewish, Islamic, Gypsy hellip; hellip; naturally involves a variety of musical styles. Flamenco, is derived from such a piece of land, regardless of its source, the number of argument, it is rooted in Andalucia, originates from the people here, and the Wandering Gypsy, and the Moors, it is probably beyond doubt.

Soul and body by dance


Corral de la Madrid moreria, is a very famous restaurants, not because of their food and wine, but because of flamenco.

It is Spain's most famous Flamenco performances restaurant. Flamenco is rooted in folk art, therefore, the most original ecological performance, often in the restaurant or bar.

10 pm, show begins.

On stage, two guitarist, two singers, several dancers. Show begins in the singer's vocal, with songs, dance dancer began. First look at flamenco, will be the actor's dance deterrent. With the guitar rhythm crescendo, actor feet will tap out flying General melody, both arms, body, and even the eyes, facial expressions, are so full of power. gangjin

Although you can see the iguana Bloom's skirt, bare back, but you would never think of sexy.

As usual, you are sure to see iguana smiling face, sexy body or graceful lanhuazhi, these are not part of flamenco. Even young, also not part of flamenco. And other dance, excellent Flamenco actor has experience, this may be closely related to the history of flamenco.

A flamenco dance, is a pain of salvation.

I prefer the flamenco dancer in the male, they storm-like melody, tap. Many people like to watch a dancer's feet, the feel that they like ATAP actor, you can then easily retractable freely. But I prefer watching dance in the actor's expressive. If the female dancers is cynical, is the proud staunch, then the actor will have a "boasts of arrogance, is a challenge to destiny, on the challenges of life.

In the flamenco dance, you can realize an attitude towards life: all the painful and unbearable, nothing.


Only the flamenco dance, the extreme love and hate, happiness and suffering, a perfect fusion and dripping.



The tragic sing to you


If you think that Flamenco is a dance, you're sadly mistaken.

It is said that the first flamenco dance is not only singing. Even today, authentic flamenco performances, also are started in the singing and guitar.

So, if you want to know the real Flamenco, be sure to go to a concert.


Flamenco singer often raucous voice are some enough, or just fit the vicissitudes of homeless people.


In Seville, a bar, 12 a.m., flamenco at the end of the performances, most of the guests are gone.

Suddenly I hear the next room of songs, it's like a magnet attracts me. That voice sounds so painfully, world hellip; hellip; although could not understand the lyrics, but still will be attracted to the melody.

So I pushed open the door and into the room full of people, even people standing.

Some listeners can't follow dancing. Singer, is an old man, accompaniment is, they sometimes sing sing, sometimes sadness, sonorous, it seems that all the pain and struggling, confused kink, song, was so sweet to be sing out. But the singing of the elderly is always half-closed eyes, looks not much light in the slightly sad.

If that tragedy is the life of suffering can show you the performance, this song is tragic unreservedly sing to you, singers sang, weeping blood listener pain sad hellip; deep song is Flamenco soul.



Blood flowing music


Blue Jean, is one of the South-East of Madrid, in a small town in the world, really small.

Here is the famous, in view of the 16th century, Sotomayor square, the square was built in around, wooden structure in the middle ages, these huts now are various restaurants. It is said that these wooden houses a total of 234 seat facing the square on the balcony, the convenience of the guests watch the performances within the square.

In the small town of Penicillium Joan Sotomayor square, I saw a open-air performances of flamenco.

On the day of the show's protagonist is not a dance, not singing, is the guitarist, Mr. Gerardo Nunes.

It is said that the guitar is the last to join the flamenco elements, but today, it has become an inseparable part of flamenco.

Gerardo Nunes is Spain famous guitar master. 2008 has been common to China with his wife. This evening's performance, the dancer is still his wife. Gerardo Nunes guitar, needless to say, plucked, do you have a quot; caused by flares earnestly arrived, Pattering jade plate quot; feeling, especially in the high frequency band, when dancers in the footsteps of tap and guitar melody together, you will have an urge to dance to, at least you'll have to give the beat. But in the entire show, he seems to only focus on the guitar, rarely face the audience.

This open-air performances, seems to fit la charm.

After the performance, had the pleasure of chatting with Gerardo Nunes, asked a few words to him, in Flamenco guitars and other musical style, he is more like the one he said without thinking: quot; certainly flamenco, because I grew up in Silesia Finnforest, young grew, flamenco to me, is the body's blood flowing, innate. Each time on the stage, I have not performed, but appreciate my own heart rhythm, enjoy the music. For flamenco, the best teacher, is love. quot;

In Spain, flamenco performances often continue late.

But no matter how late, the audience will find fascinating hellip; hellip;
