This book is a passionate journey to the heart of the sevillanas, a genre that beats with the force of the Andalusian tradition and that has woven, throughout the centuries, a history of emotions, faith and art. Feliciano Pérez-Vera Hernández invites us to discover how these coplas have witnessed love, devotion and popular customs, from his childhood in Hinojos to the most emblematic stages of flamenco culture. With an approachable style and full of personal experiences, the author shares endearing anecdotes, the creative process behind his most iconic compositions and his struggle to preserve the essence of a genre that unites generations. In addition, the book pays tribute to the figures who marked the rise of the sevillanas and reflects on their transformation over time.
