Gypsy Flamenco is a Classic Art and a Folk Art, which emerged officially in the 19th century as the musical tradition of Andalucia, in the South of Spain, a tradition forged by Gitanos (Gypsies, today correctly called Romanies) and non-Gypsies representing a diversity of cultures. But for the Romanies who settled in the Iberian Peninsula, in the 15th century, and who were persecuted over 300 years, Flamenco is a native musical language which is lived day by day. It is their “Blues”. Carmen Amay
