FLAMENCO MUSIC




                 Rocio Mejia
WHAT IS FLAMENCO?
•   An expression of life, a communication on the deepest
    most profound level
•   Folk art and culture from Spain (Andalusia)
•   The musical outlet of the poor and oppressed
•   Influenced by 4 major cultures
     • Gypsies

     • Moors, or Arabs

     • Jews

     • Indigenous Andalusians
GYPSIES COME TO SPAIN
• Gypsies began to migrate into
  Europe from the Middle East
  and northern Africa

• Brought their own styles of
  music and dance

• Earned money by performing
  trades such as storytelling,
  using herbal medicine, and
  doing other odd jobs
MEANWHILE…
•   Arabs are taking over the Middle East and Europe, working
    their way to Spain
•   A new Spain was created
     • Mixed cultures, religions, and language

•   The blending of these cultures in specifically Andalusia had
    a large part in the formation of flamenco
   1492 – Jews were banished from Spain
•   anyone that did not conform to standard Spanish society
    was tortured, persecuted, and killed
•   Many were forced to join existing gypsy groups
•   Spanish society looked down upon gypsy customs,
    beliefs,

•   While in hiding or in prison, they would sing songs to
    express their heartache
•   Similar to spirituals and other African American music
    more commonly known
During the 19th century, gypsies were
no longer in hiding


•   Began to display their music
    and dance in public

•   Gained admirers

•   Did not become popular until
    non-Gypsies began
    performing in cafes and
    theatres

•   Gypsies have always been
    considered the best
    interpreters
THE NAME “FLAMENCO”
•   The name "Flamenco" did not come from the Gitanos
    (Gypsies) themselves.
•   The name Flamenco was chosen as a reference (the
    Flemings)
•   Flemish Charles brought Latin Flanders to sing in the
    Spanish cathedrals, to brighten up the sober Islamic
    lifestyle.
•   These very good singers were called Flamencos (Flemish).
EMBELLISHMENTS AND RHYTHM
   Typical of Gypsy music all over the world are the mostly
    simplistic harmonies (often of local music) that are used,
    combined with the extensive use of embellishments.

   improvisation plays a major part in this music; whenever
    they play a piece, it's never the same twice.
   Flamenco is felt from measure to measure, with up to twelve
    counts and several beats in a measure. In flamenco each
    measure is a rhythmical phrase, with a "question-answer"
    structure
INSTRUMENTS IN FLAMENCO:

•   singing, dance and guitar.

•   The most complete form of
    flamenco is where these three
    basic components are used.

•   there are some songs that are
    done without any accompaniment.
MUSICAL QUALITIES

•   For the Gitanos, the significance of their singing is related to
    the way singer can strike or touch the audience.

•   songs were their only tools to orally pass on historical facts
    and

•   personal feelings and emotions.
HARMONIC CONTENT
•   The three modes, used in flamenco guitar music
•   , are the Ionian mode (the major scale), the Aolean mode
    (the natural Minor scale) and the Phrygian mode

•   Typical chord progression of the Flamenco cadence is
    VI, V, IV, III
•   . The most typical chord progression of the Flamenco
    cadence is VI,V, IV, III in which the III is major dominant
    Phrygian
FLAMENCO TODAY
•   The number of different types
    of instruments has grown
    significantly.
•   violin, the cello and the flute
    are used frequently in
    flamenco performances.




•   fusion with folk music, jazz or
    Middle Eastern, Asian and
    Latin musical styles.

  • 1. FLAMENCO MUSIC Rocio Mejia
  • 2. WHAT IS FLAMENCO? • An expression of life, a communication on the deepest most profound level • Folk art and culture from Spain (Andalusia) • The musical outlet of the poor and oppressed • Influenced by 4 major cultures • Gypsies • Moors, or Arabs • Jews • Indigenous Andalusians
  • 3. GYPSIES COME TO SPAIN • Gypsies began to migrate into Europe from the Middle East and northern Africa • Brought their own styles of music and dance • Earned money by performing trades such as storytelling, using herbal medicine, and doing other odd jobs
  • 4. MEANWHILE… • Arabs are taking over the Middle East and Europe, working their way to Spain • A new Spain was created • Mixed cultures, religions, and language • The blending of these cultures in specifically Andalusia had a large part in the formation of flamenco
  • 5. 1492 – Jews were banished from Spain • anyone that did not conform to standard Spanish society was tortured, persecuted, and killed • Many were forced to join existing gypsy groups • Spanish society looked down upon gypsy customs, beliefs, • While in hiding or in prison, they would sing songs to express their heartache • Similar to spirituals and other African American music more commonly known
  • 6. During the 19th century, gypsies were no longer in hiding • Began to display their music and dance in public • Gained admirers • Did not become popular until non-Gypsies began performing in cafes and theatres • Gypsies have always been considered the best interpreters
  • 7. THE NAME “FLAMENCO” • The name "Flamenco" did not come from the Gitanos (Gypsies) themselves. • The name Flamenco was chosen as a reference (the Flemings) • Flemish Charles brought Latin Flanders to sing in the Spanish cathedrals, to brighten up the sober Islamic lifestyle. • These very good singers were called Flamencos (Flemish).
  • 8. EMBELLISHMENTS AND RHYTHM  Typical of Gypsy music all over the world are the mostly simplistic harmonies (often of local music) that are used, combined with the extensive use of embellishments.  improvisation plays a major part in this music; whenever they play a piece, it's never the same twice.  Flamenco is felt from measure to measure, with up to twelve counts and several beats in a measure. In flamenco each measure is a rhythmical phrase, with a "question-answer" structure
  • 9. INSTRUMENTS IN FLAMENCO: • singing, dance and guitar. • The most complete form of flamenco is where these three basic components are used. • there are some songs that are done without any accompaniment.
  • 10. MUSICAL QUALITIES • For the Gitanos, the significance of their singing is related to the way singer can strike or touch the audience. • songs were their only tools to orally pass on historical facts and • personal feelings and emotions.
  • 11. HARMONIC CONTENT • The three modes, used in flamenco guitar music • , are the Ionian mode (the major scale), the Aolean mode (the natural Minor scale) and the Phrygian mode • Typical chord progression of the Flamenco cadence is VI, V, IV, III • . The most typical chord progression of the Flamenco cadence is VI,V, IV, III in which the III is major dominant Phrygian
  • 12. FLAMENCO TODAY • The number of different types of instruments has grown significantly. • violin, the cello and the flute are used frequently in flamenco performances. • fusion with folk music, jazz or Middle Eastern, Asian and Latin musical styles.
