Inspired by Spanish filmmaker Carlos Saura's trilogy of "music movies," we hear Portuguese fado, Spanish flamenco, and Argentine tango in various permutations, including music by Mariza, Mariza & Miguel Poveda, Astor Piazzolla, Rafael Jimenez, and others. Some are sampled from the most recent of Saura's films, "Fados," like Amália Rodrigues, Cesaria Evora, and possibly even Caetano Veloso. There's probably also music from "Flamenco," by Paco de Lucia, Enrique Morente, and Carmen Linares, plus a sampling of traditional tango music from composers such as Piazzolla, Canario, Salgan, and Filiberto, used in "Tango."

What a moving show! Many thanks!
miguel poveda... a beautiful singer! thank you!! i've been a life long flamenco aficionada, and i find his voice moving and soothing, energizing and joyful.
p.s. Cante Gitano is not a command (as in sing gypsy) but rather a type, (gypsy song).
thank you for tonight's theme.
One of the most amazing things I ever did musically to this date was sing with a choir with Paco Pena's band, singing is Misa Flameca, which was a Catholic mass, and a comparison Flamenco and big choral sound. Had a chance to sing it at Stanford University, this was probably back around 1996/7 or thereabouts.
