Flamenco

Music, art, and duende

Granada is one of the main references of flamenco in Spain, especially the Sacromonte is one of its cradles. This gipsy quarter is the heart of what flamenco experts called jondura or duende and origin of the zambra, a flamenco dance and song party which has its origin in the 16th century, in particular, at the wedding rituals of the moriscos of the city.
