New Flamenco movementThe most important early pioneers of New Flamenco are the guitarist Paco de Lucía, and singer Camarón de la Isla. Between 1968 and 1979 they enjoyed a fruitful collaboration which produced 10 albums, of which many introduced fresh musical concepts into the traditional and somewhat 'dusty' music style that flamenco had become. After their collaboration Paco de Lucía went on to develop flamenco music in many different directions, even back into the Moorish music origins of traditional flamenco music. New FlamencoNew flamenco always respects its central concept of rhythm, complemented by dance, music or voice (or all or some combination there of). The flamenco guitar plays a sentinel role in aiding flamenco. It is sometimes joined by violin, flute, bass. It is said that the person playing the instrument is flamenco, not the instrument itself. A variety of tonalities (see tonality) is possible, sometimes assimilating other genres such as jazz, Classical music and blues and others, yet trying never to lose its focus on flamenco and its character. As such, the full essence of "new flamenco" may be fully expressed without a guitar being played (see palo seco). This provides a great contrast within new flamenco. No matter how "new" the flamenco, it will never violate its own compás, cante or baile.
