SYNOPSIS

The city of Cadiz and the air of the bay are the territories in which the author of the book has placed this contribution to the general history of Flamenco. To speak of Flamenco in Cadiz is to open the door to its origins and find explanations for myths, legends and fables that have always woven the essence of this universal and, at the same time, Andalusian art. “Flamenco in Cadiz” is a book about Flamenco, but, at the same time, it aims to be a book of rhythmic history, a memory of years that have gone by, leaving an indelible mark, and a memory of the characters who made possible the survival of the Andalusian and Cadiz musical legacy. In its pages the reader will find news that are already part of the flamenco tradition and some others that will seem new and astonishing: such is the richness of this enclave, of this southern island, universal and full of its own sounds.
