Carmen Amaya

I am a student of Flamenco music, and I can tell you that Carmen Amaya is a major talent and genius of the art of Flamenco. Other videos I have seen show her singing and rapping out (nodillos) Flamenco's complex rhythmic patterns with her knuckles on a wood table. Like Nat King Cole and Fred Astaire, she was able to express her music vocally, through dance and with any rhythmic device at her disposal
