Abstract
The exclusion of music and dance as research topics, has distorted our perception of flamenco. Research about Spanich dance, and particularly about their origins and early development, can help to overcome old stereotypes. This paper focuses on two kinds of environments that we consider preflamencos: theatrical precedents, and popular dances (bailes de candil) reinterpreted by the andalusian gypsies. We focus in "key preflamenca" about the spanish dances performed in the short dramatic forms: jácaras and entremeses from the Golden Age, sainetes and tonadillas of eighteenth century, andalusian sainetes of the first half of the nineteenth. The bolero, beyond have originated a distinct school of dance, originated some of the conventions of flamenco dancing. The first flamenco dance parties are analyzed as a gypsy reinterpretation of Andalusian dances of lamp.
