Flamenco is song, music and dance. It is passion and poetry, an ancient memory of pain.
This lecture will show the history of Flamenco but also many different rhythms, called palos. These will be illustrated with videos showing the very best of flamenco dancing and singing but also different styles and moods, from the very sad to the very merry, from dirges to Christmas celebrations.
