#10850 — Exploring Flamenco’s Arab Roots

Hello,


Look in the following video of a white arab algerian music:

I invite you to listen to this beautiful white arab algerian music,
and in the video they are playing it in Montreal where
i am living since year 1989:

Labess - Mon beau Sapin (version chaabi)

And notice in the video that the white arab algerian musicians are also playing a part of the music in a style of Flamenco music, read why:

"As flamenco artists and critics began to explore the elements of gitano performance, they rediscovered the rich Arab influence in flamenco. The artform’s basic building blocs – sung poetry and music – were borrowed from the Arabs and Berbers who ruled al-Andalus"
