Flamenco! Notes on Flamenco in Andalusia and Elsewhere in Spain

Monday February 23, 2004
No music says more about its homeland's cultural heritage and landscape than Flamenco. But where can a tourist go to see the real thing? It's tough. As Flamenco is brought out of the smoky bars and into the limelight for the tourists, the small venues that captured the soul of the music and provided a fertile training ground for musicians began vanishing. We scour the web for suggestions on avoiding the diluted tourist version of Flamenco.

Looking for other information about Spain? Start with a Map and Travel Essentials, then maybe some Pictures of Spain. You might want to visit the wild northern coast, or see a very narrow castle in the heart of some of Spain's best wine country. Then again, maybe you'll be eating in Spain or looking for information before embarking on a tapas crawl.
