The seguiriyas are considered the quintessence of the jondura, one of the backbones of flamenco, with a wide range of nuances depending on the region and cantaores. Let’s get to know them a little better.<\/p>\n

Their origin is uncertain. It seems that they were already being sung in the 18th century, although those seguiriyas were sung by pla\u00f1ideras, hence they were also called “playeras”. <\/span><\/p>\n Its main characteristic is that seguiriyas are the cante of grief, with a dramatic style, sad and tragic lyrics, although they present a very wide stylistic variety. For example, calls are not the same as calls<\/span>seguiriyas of Triana, those of Jerez or those of C\u00e1diz and Los Puertos. Incidentally, Jerez and C\u00e1diz are the two areas of origin.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”d9e84ea1-8914-4e7b-9381-cfbb38006295″ text_font=”Domine||||||||” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”32em” header_2_font=”Domine|700|||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Although it depends on the specific style, the title of the cantaor exponent of this palo could be given to Silverio Franconetti, also considered by many experts as the best cantaor of all times. This Sevillian gave them such interpretative difficulties that his school almost disappeared. <\/span><\/p>\n Tom\u00e1s Pav\u00f3n was a master of the seguiriyas of Triana, while Juan Junquera, el Marrurro, Manuel Molina, Paco La Luz, El Loco Mateo and Joaqu\u00edn la Serna are masters of the seguiriyas of Jerez. From C\u00e1diz, El Mellizo, Enrique el Gordo and Curro Durse. <\/span><\/p>\n Others who have excelled in this palo are Manolo Caracol, Antonio Chac\u00f3n, Pepe Torres, Pastora Pav\u00f3n, and Antonio Mairena. <\/span> <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”d9e84ea1-8914-4e7b-9381-cfbb38006295″ text_font=”Domine||||||||” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”32em” header_2_font=”Domine|700|||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n In dance, they had a late incorporation, in the twentieth century. Vicente Escudero is considered to be its implementer in 1939; Pilar L\u00f3pez, was one of the first to interpret the seguiriyas dance by adding the palillos. <\/span><\/p>\n One specification of the seguiriya (since in its beginnings it was a dry palo, without an instrument) is that the guitar accompaniment is very strumming, using the thumb, with very pure sounds.
