Details
A story of exile, passion and survival, the music tells a tale of the pain of separation and the agony of the soul. Sufi and Flamenco have been intertwined as part of a centuries-long journey. As traders made their way from India through the Middle East and North Africa and into Southern Spain, so flamenco absorbed the vibrant traditions of the places where it rested, pulling together the strands of cross-cultural musical practices to become a uniquely impassioned and inspiring art form.
