What does flamenco come from?

Answer 1

Flamenco originated in the Andalusian region of Spain, influenced by a blend of cultures, including the Romani, Moorish, Jewish, and indigenous Andalusian traditions. It evolved as a form of expressive art that encompasses singing (cante), guitar playing (toque), and dance (baile), often reflecting themes of passion, struggle, and life experiences. The art form gained prominence in the 19th century and has since become a symbol of Spanish cultural identity.
