<< Previous | Next >>

Journalist Silvia Calado publishes the book ‘Por bulerías. 100 años de compás flamenco’. The author, contents director of Flamenco-world.com, lays out in these informative pages a plunge into the genesis and evolution of the flamenco style which is “at its 100 years of age, the youngest one in flamenco, and nevertheless, the catalyst of this musical genre’s evolution, not just since Camarón’s revolution, but since La Niña de los Peines recorded it for the first time, named as such, in 1910”. Where the word comes from, what the key to its flamenco compás is, what its lyrics talk about, what its different types and territories are, who the main artists are that developed and develop it, what its presence is in recordings, how it is mixed with other types of music… are the main aspects which the book deals with. As additional contents, it includes interviews, statements by bailaores, cantaores, guitarists and other musicians, as well as the listening guide ‘100 bulerías 100’. The book is part of the flamenco collection by publisher Almuzara - which already includes titles such as ‘De Jerez y sus cantes’, ‘Manolo Caracol. Cante y pasión’ and ‘El cante flamenco’ - and inaugurates the series ‘Los palos del flamenco’ (‘Flamenco Styles’).
