Summary The fandango, emerging in the early-eighteenth century Black Atlantic as a dance and music craze across Spain and the Americas, came to comprise genres as diverse as Mexican son jarocho, the salon and concert fandangos of Mozart and Scarlatti, and the Andalusian fandangos central to flamenco. From the celebrations of humble folk to the theaters of the European elite, with boisterous castanets, strumming strings, flirtatious sensuality, and dexterous footwork, the fandango became a conduit for the syncretism of music, dance, and people of diverse Spanish, Afro-Latin, Gitano, and even Amerindian
Notes The papers gathered here were presented at the conference "Spaniards, Indians, Africans and Gypsies : The global reach of the fandango in music, song and dance" (Foundation for Iberian Music; The Graduate Center, The City University of New York, April 17 & 18, 2015)
