In Seville, the home of Flamenco, the EADH Conference will address distinctive aspects – both regional and global – of this dance through history.

SONG AND DANCE
Song and Dance are united in Flamenco, and have been combined in many art forms from
pop music, musical theatre, movies, right back to mediaeval carole circle dancing.

CULTURAL EXOTICISM
The exotic world of Spanish gypsies and Arab cultures are still made evident in today’s performances. How have specific cultural trends, styles and modes of performances been transformed into new dance forms? How is the exotic created through dance?

FUSION AND CONFUSION
New exciting performances are created by fusing flamenco with other dance styles.
These can be very original and absorbing but what is the place of traditional flamenco in these dances. Now that Flamenco has merged with other performance styles such as Jazz and Tango, papers may also consider whether this has produced fusion or confusion.
