Abstract


This article presents one of the styles of Minero singing, perhaps a not very well-known modality in Flamenco practice: La Murciana. More specifi cally, this article deals with two versions, which are nowadays the best known and repeatedly performed in the International Festival of “Cante de las Minas” in La Unión. My research is focused primarily on its formal and cadential structure. It is my intention to bring –in the most synthetic, clear and organized way–, all information that has meant to me a new way of accessing to an extraordinarily rich repertoire; therefore, any historical work has been subordinated to the mission of informing myself and enriching my knowledge about this musical style.
