Ayeo is the heartrending expression of one of the most critical
moments in cante; with each ‘ay’ we revive one
of flamenco's deepest senses, which is the vital grief of
the ancestors, those gypsies, Moors, Andalusians, Jews...
who while living together in the south created one of the
most beautiful artforms.
