Description: Gypsy Cante : Deep Song of the Caves, Paperback by Kirkland, Will (EDT), ISBN 0872863611, ISBN-13 9780872863613, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Over the course of centuries, Andalusian Gypsies developed cante jondo, or deep song, an art that grew out of the experience of exile and marginalization. The striking imagery and emotional purity of cante lyrics were inspiration for Federico Garcia Lorca and his generation of Spanish poets. Like American blues, cante is a brilliant cultural legacy long kept alive and aflame by unlettered geniuses. Although flamenco music enjoys wide popularity today, the words of the songs are often lost in the passion of the performance, or because they are sung in dialect. This volume brings together a bilingual sampling of lyrics and brief remarks about them by notable flamenco aficionados.
