Granadina Flamenca

about

Granadina, or Granaína, is a variant of the Granada fandangos. The style is characterised by a free rhythm (toque libre) and rich embellishments which convey a dreamlike and flowing quality.

Part of the unique quality of the Granadina is its reliance on the Phrygian mode based around the B note. The Moorish influence in the Granadina melodic structure is clearly noticeable.

Originally the Granaína is a flamenco style of singing and guitar playing from Granada. It was originally danceable, but over time has evolved into a song or guitar solo form, reflecting its Arab-Moorish heritage more strongly than other fandangos.
