FLAMENCO


Hi:
Today I will write of the flamenco, the dance, not of animals.
This dance, it´s typical dance Spanish, origin is gypsy, and it goes back to the first migratory flows.
The flamenco is a dance that have much emotions, and generally It`s express emotions how love, pain, loneliness, happiness among others. Too the way of sing it´s special.
The special feature it´s that flamenco divide in different dance, that name in Spanish is “palos”, each one of them have a form different rhythm. In general the rhythm it´s counting in twelve time, but what changes it the accent.
Too every “palo” have a thematic different, for example some express happiness and her name is alegría, in addition the form play guitar have thing special. Other it´s the “martinente” the history is very interesting because, this “palo” don´t have instrument, for example guitar or “cajon” (instrument the percussion), this “palo” only use a anvil, that it´s hit whit a little hammer, and a “cantaor” (singer), its origin is in a “Fragua” (place where to work the iron) and the workers in their free time singed.
The other days I write more of the flamenco.
