Flamenco in Seville: Passion, History, and Unique Experiences with THE SUN PLACES
🎶 Origins and History of Flamenco in Seville
Flamenco, declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, has its roots in the blend of cultures that coexisted in Andalusia: Gypsies, Arabs, Jews, and Christians. Seville, as the heart of this tradition, was where flamenco evolved since the 18th century, especially in neighborhoods like Triana, La Macarena, and El Arenal, where peñas flamencos and tablaos keep this art alive.
Fun Fact: "Cante jondo" (the purest form of flamenco) was born in the forges and patios of Seville, where artists expressed deep emotions through singing, guitar playing, and dancing.
🌟 Great Figures of Sevillian Flamenco
- Antonio Mairena (Singer) – Master of the Gypsy tradition.

- Joaquín Cortés (Dancer) – Revolutionized flamenco by fusing it with contemporary dance.
- Estrella Morente (Singer) – Representative of modern flamenco with pure roots.
