    Description

    This episode is extraordinary because of the importance of its protagonist in the history of flamenco: Don Francisco Amate. An amateur flamenco singer who, as fate would have it, recorded some non-commercial wax cylinders in Los Angeles (USA) at the beginning of the 20th century. These recordings are one of the few samples of how flamenco was sung before commercial recordings appeared.

    The podcast "Forgotten Sounds of Flamenco" proposes a journey to the world of sounds, stories, spaces and characters that were part of the early stages of flamenco, and that in many cases today are forgotten about the histories of music and flamenco. It is conducted by the ethnomusicologist José Miguel Hernández Jaramillo, with the aim of sharing some of the results of his research work in this matter with all people passionate about history, culture, music and flamenco.
