Flamenca Legend Card reads...
Andalusia in southern Spain is the birthplace of the lively music and dance of flamenco, an important part of the Gitano or Gypsy culture. Much of the musical styling and dance movements of flamenco are heavily influenced by the Jewish tradition, as well as by the Moors who occupied Andalusia for nearly eight hundred years. El Arte Flamenco consists of the three integral parts: Cante, the song, Baile, the dance, and Guitarra, guitar playing. Flamenco is a spontaneous expression of an artist’ emotions similar to Jazz. The Spanish call it duende or an inner spirit that fuels an inspired performance.
