History of Flamenco in Seville Flamenco has its roots in the 18th century, when it was performed in
taverns and private patios . Its popularity grew until it was consolidated in the famous
cafés cantantes , where it began to be defined as a professional art thanks to figures such as
Silverio Franconetti , a flamenco singer and businessman who promoted these venues in the city. But to speak of flamenco in Seville is
necessarily to speak of Triana . This neighborhood, considered the
birthplace of flamenco , saw the birth of great figures and housed the main dance and singing academies. Over time, the professionalization of artists and the fusion of styles between different regions of Spain enriched flamenco, giving rise to the figure of the professional singer and the consolidation of the different flamenco styles. Today, Seville keeps this tradition alive with numerous flamenco shows, and if you visit the city,
you cannot miss the experience of an authentic flamenco tablao .
