Flamenco, the beautiful and untamed soul.
Come to Seville for sightseeing, besides visiting the must-see Cathedral, Palace and Plaza de España, we strongly recommend you to enjoy a flamenco performance❗️
🌟 Flamenco
Flamenco, an art form originating from the Andalusia region in southern Spain, includes singing, music, and dance. The formation of Flamenco was deeply influenced by the Moors and Jews in the Andalusia region, and also absorbed a large number of artistic elements from the Roma (Gypsy) people.
The greatest driving force behind flamenco dance comes entirely from the guitar, song, percussion, and dance steps that are both sad and urgent, lively and passionate. Through performance, the historical emotions of love, hate, sorrow, and joy of this ethnic group are like a mighty force that easily captures the hearts of the audience present, and cannot be calmed for a long time even after the melody ends!
This is an art born from the great fusion. It blends Eastern and Western cultures, with the solemnity of Greek style and the wildness of African drums, the melancholy of Andalusian folk songs and the romance of Castilian nationality. It is a mixture of Gypsy and Black art, of joy and pain, of high opera and ethnic festivals.
Flamenco dance has become a representative of Spanish dance and even Spanish culture. On November 16, 2010, UNESCO declared Flamenco dance as one of the masterpieces of human intangible heritage.
🌟 Flamenco Dance Museum (Museo del Baile Flamenco)
Seville's museum is located in an 18th-century building in the old city, providing a detailed introduction to the history and culture of flamenco dance, as well as live performances. It is a great place to watch flamenco performances, as the stage is very close to the audience.
📍Ticket prices
Combo ticket: Flamenco performance + visit to Flamenco Dance Museum for 32 euros.
Remember to book tickets online in advance, as they are often sold out if purchased on the day.
📝Attention tips:
If you want a good seat in the middle of the theater, arrive early because seats are first come, first served.
🌟 The origin of Flamenco
"The word 'flamenco' comes from the Arabic word for 'fugitive peasant'."
Its origin is disputed, but one widely accepted theory is that the Romani people set out from northern India and, after many travels, arrived in southern Spain. As a result, this dance form incorporates elements from India, Jewish, Arab, and even Byzantine cultures, and later absorbed nutrients from southern Spain. It was the Romani people living in Andalusia, Spain (also known as Flamenco people) who shaped and popularized it.
