Cuadro Flamenco
The people clapping their hands.
The stage is always made with a wooden floor.
A flamenco group is composed of a guitar player, dancers, a singer and handclappers
The songs are sorrowful, tragic, painful and passionate sounds.

Flamenco players tend to play the guitar between the sound hole and the bridge, but as closely as possible to the bridge, to produce a harsher, rasping sound quality.
While a classical guitarist supports the guitar on the right leg, and holds it at an incline, flamenco guitarists usually cross their legs and support the guitar on whichever leg is on top, placing the neck of the guitar nearly parallel to the floor.
Paco de Lucía
Flamenco dancing is known for its emotional intensity, proud carriage, expressive use of the arms and rhythmic stamping of the feet.
The dancing is similar to doing a workout.
Joaquín Cortés
The handclapping or las palmas is an art in itself, and although it may look easy, it is not, and the palmeros will weave intricate rhythms around the bases of the song, and in the tablaos this is used in conjunction with the zapateado.
The zapateado is the noise created by the foot.
The dress is trimmed with layers of ruffles on both the skirt and sleeves. The dress is typically brightly coloured, usually in black, red or may be either plain or patterned, with the most famous being the polka dotted 'traje de lunares'.
The outfit is completed with a shawl (mantón de Manila) worn over the shoulders.
Flamenco shoes constructed for dance generally have small nails embedded in the toe and heel to enhance the sound of the dancer's percussive footwork.
