Flamenco

Flamenco is one of the world's most expressive and passionate art forms, born in Andalusia from a confluence of Romani, Moorish, Jewish, and Spanish cultures, and recognised as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2010. The art encompasses singing (cante), guitar playing (toque), dancing (baile), handclapping (palmas), and finger snapping (pitos) in an intense, improvisational interplay between performer and audience. The best place to experience authentic flamenco is in Seville's old tablaos, especially during the annual Bienal de Flamenco festival.
