Synopsis

Why did Tragabuche join the bandits known as Siete niños de Écija? Did Beni de Cádiz die twice? Who was it said that anyone who did not go to hear him sing had no shame? What relationship did the Camelias have with Valle-Inclán or the Romero de Torres brothers? Why was the Granada Flamenco Competition really organised? What was hidden in the cafés-cantantes? What magical relationship exists between the bull and singing? Who was the dancer who they said made you dizzy just looking at her? Flamenco is an immeasurable treasure in its forms and times. From the time flamenco was not flamenco until it was declared Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, it has been present all over the world, from Cape Trafalgar to the Paralelo in Barcelona, ​​from the Levant to the fandangos of Huelva. And, of course, crossing borders, it is not in vain that the first chair of flamenco guitar was created in Rotterdam. But like every great treasure, it hides great secrets. In this fascinating and delightful work, Eduardo J. Pastor Rodríguez unravels many of the questions surrounding the world of flamenco, giving it that charm that makes it eternal.
