The revenge of the Flamenco, Francesca Schillaci

Sadness, happiness, music, tradition and a dire need to rid the body of historical, cultural and racial oppression: these are the main elements that the history of English Flamenco transmit to us viewers.

But how does this dance? It really is a typical English dance?

always hear about the appointment of flamenco when Spain, the home of warmth, of dance and bodily contact. Today, in every region of Spain there are schools that specialize in Flamenco dance and knowledge of the philosophy of this "rite Gypsy," which began as a search for a way to escape the frustration of everyday life.

But where and how develops? The home is Andalusia, the southernmost region of Spain, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic: thanks to its geographical position, this region has always been the focus of major migration flows. Among these, the most important is the Arab people, has been in Spain for eight hundred years, which has left significant traces in the culture, architecture and Castilian. We must say that not only the Arabs have revolutionized the history of Spain, indeed, both culturally and artistically a nation still heavily criticized, has imported the most famous dance, sensual and philosophical known throughout the world: Gypsies.

A nation of dancers and musicians from Greece, sent away from halfway around the world, who settled peacefully in Catalonia in 1400, then the most popular in Andalusia: considered illegal, they were prohibited from any type of business and work, so that, to escape the daily repression, became the best performers and representatives of the local folklore. Quickly learned all the dances and African Andalusian poorer classes in the area, placing in every dance full of passion, pathos and energia.Il gypsy stood at the edge of society, both economically and culturally, and enclosed in the typical characteristics of the people themselves "Poor", a strong sense of religion, love for the community, dancing, wine, music and sensuality strongly emphasized, often confusing the sacred and the profane.

Flamenco began as poetry and music of a people suffering from forced marginalization, where the feeling of solidarity characterized the days of individuals. And as everyone knows, makes poverty solidarity. This peculiarity, in fact, can be found in the verses written gypsies, where the main topics were the hardness of the work, the difficulties of life, aversion of fate, the feeling and death. At the beginning and then the Flamenco was an artistic phenomenon seeds underground, with the characteristics of a solitary plant, family and private.

With the advent of Charles III, the promoter of agricultural innovations, economic, and lover of different cultures and traditions, the gypsies were granted their freedom of expression lines. It was thus that he became a Flamenco dance is open to the world, an individual dance, where what matters is the complete fusion of body and soul, pain, frustration, joy and happiness, expressed through the gestures of the body. There was no distinction between men and women, anyone could dance, everyone could express and vent their inner life as best choose, thanks to the sound of a guitar and a group of people in a circle, as a public observer of the emotions of others.

In no time the "dance of the intimate" reached a great success among the people of Andalusia, to the point that merely elevate it to the English tradition. Even today in Spain it considers part of its tradition, especially in Andalusia, where every year a festival is given only three days of the Flamenco, the "Feria de Abril in Seville, where all women and girls of the place wearing the typical dress of flamenco, with a fan and a red flower in her hair. They are in a carriage accompanied by men dressed as knights gypsies and horses are adorned with flowers typical gypsy guitar accompanied by the inevitable English Andalusian approaching the community in a ritual of cultural history, in memory of a people who, thanks to the love for poetry and music, the emotion and solidarity, has managed to get the respect, appreciation and dissemination of their origins from all over Spain.
