Desarrollando una aproximación a la cultura de enseñanza-aprendizaje del flamenco: un aprendizaje (tradicional) innovador

This chapter focuses on flamenco music, which has so far been defined as urban music of the early twentieth century. Although many flamenco styles and musical forms originated in Andalusia, they also have roots in other neighbouring regions of Spain and subsequently expanded to regions such as Madrid and Catalonia in central and northern Spain. UNESCO recognises flamenco as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, but there are still many aspects of flamenco, especially urban flamenco, that have not been researched. In Spain, it currently only receives incipient political, economic, educational, and social attention. This chapter discusses the appropriate appreciation and recovery of flamenco and of the communities in which it is conveyed orally, as well as the case of flamenco within musical education in Spain in order to consider globally the tensions between teaching mainstream music and aboriginal traditions. I will provide results of in-depth interviews with young, intercultural musicians, which will enable us to establish the essential features of learning in Roma communities analysed through their viewpoints and experiences within and outside the community.Depto. de Didáctica de las Lenguas, Artes y Educación FísicaFac. de EducaciónTRUEpu
