{"product_id":"secrets-of-andalusia","title":"The Secrets of Andalusia","description":"We know that key influences on Flamenco date back  to Islamic Iberia or the Al-Andalusian era of Spain  between the 8th-15th centuries. Yet the first mention  of Flamenco by name is not until 1774, where it  appears in an epistolary novel, Cartas Marruecas, by  the playwright and soldier, Jose de Cadalso y Vazquez. In collaboration on with soprano Victoria Couper, kanun  player, Konstantin nos Glynos, and oud\/Flamenco  guitarist, Ignacio Lusardi Monteverde, this album seeks  to explore this question by tracing the influences on  Flamenco through Arabic music alongside Sephardic  song and the Spanish composers of the late-16th to  18th centuries. What happened in these intervening centuries?","brand":"First Hand Records","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49309959979288,"sku":"5060216344157","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4386862-3290453.jpg?v=1777492112","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/secrets-of-andalusia","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
