Dear Friends:
First of all, it is my pleasure to
announce that LANDALUZ, with
its many companies, will once
again visit our beloved neighbour
Portugal. There will be two
promotions in September and

From the pages of this issue, I
would like to express my
appreciation to both chains and
their managers for the sensitivity
they have shown towards the
Andalusian agri-business sector by
granting us all their confidence
and therefore appreciating the
quality and variety.

INAUGURATED THE EXTENDA BUSINESS PROMOTIONAL UNIT IN DÜSSELDORF
This past month of July, the Regional Minister of
Tourism, Commerce and Sports, Mr. Paulino Plata,
officially inaugurated the Andalusian Business Promotional
Unit in Düsseldorf with the participation of more than
300 German and Spanish entrepreneurs. The event
was held at the Rheinterrasse convention center.
Together with the Regional Minister was Mr. Joachim
Erwin, Mayor of Düsseldorf, and Mr. Jacobo González,
the Consulate of Spain in Germany.
During his speech, the Regional Minister underlined the
presence of Andalusia in Germany, with some 500 firms
exporting products. He explained that between 1998
and 2003 this number increased 17% in comparison to
the 8% of all of Spain. “The new office,” he stated, “has
been designed to increase this dynamics, to provide
companies services at one of the main markets of the
world, but also one of the most competitive and
demanding, where it is essential to have ample
consultancy services.”
The Business Promotional Unit (BPU) is located in the
center of Düsseldorf, capital of Renania in northern
Westfalia. This region of Germany has the greatest
volume of foreign trade and is home the HQ of a
number of important industrial groups as well as some
of the largest distributors of agri-business and consumer
products.

ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
Sandra Rodríguez Gericke will be the manager of the
recently inaugurated BPU, which began operating early
this year, and has just finished elaborating the Country
Plan. This document established the lines of action for
the next three years, as well as the priority sectors
where specific work will be undertaken. These fields
include agricultural-foods, aeronautics, industry and
consumer goods.
The German Objective
In keeping with the Strategic Plan for Internationalization
of the Economy, the support offices abroad have been
established in those markets with high potential, and that
present certain difficulties due to their complexity or
distance. Today, the demand of the companies and the
continual increase of activities by Extenda in Germany
have motivated the inauguration of this office.
Currently, the Andalusian Promotional Agency has a
network of 17 BPUs, located in Europe (Brussels,
Budapest, Düsseldorf, London—which will official
inaugurated this next fall—Lisbon, Moscow, Prague,
Warsaw and Paris), in America (Buenos Aires, Mexico
D.F., Miami, Santiago de Chile, and Sao Paulo), in Asia
(Beijing and Tokyo), and in Africa (Casablanca).

businessmen and women met to
strengthen commercial ties and
identify new business opportunities
at the 2nd Hispano-Luso Forum.
The encounter was held in Sevilla
on June 30, and was organized by
Extenda (the Andalusian Agency for
Promotion Abroad)—an Agency
dependent upon the Regional
Ministry of Tourism, Commerce
and Sports—and the Chambers of
Commerce of Portugal and Spain.
Andalusia maintains intensive
commercial relationship with
Portugal. Currently, more than 700
companies in the region have been
in contact with the Portuguese
market, in sectors such as
agri-business, construction,
machinery and furniture. One
fourth of the trans-national
exchanges between Spain and
Portugal are concentrated in the
province of Huelva and the Algarbe
area.
During the celebration of this
forum, entrepreneurs had the
opportunity to establish contacts
between both areas, in search of
new business possibilities and
cooperation as well as the
exchange of commercial
experiences. Likewise,
the participating
authorities in the venue held a
variety of meeting to consolidate
institutional relationships between
Andalusian and Portugal.
This activity was part of the EU
Interreg III-A initiatives, a
cooperation Project with Portugal,
in which Extenda has been
undertaking a number of activities
to collaborate with the Agency for
Regional Development of Alentejo.
In this sense, three market studies
have been performed

During this encounter, four
round-tables were held to debate
sectorial topics, including
agri-business, real estate, tourism
and energy and finally, the
environment. Julio Moreno, from
Extenda, inaugurated the event.
Likewise, the Consulate General for
Portugal in Sevilla, José Manuel
Bulhão and Enrique Santos, the
President of the Luso-Spanish
Chamber of Commerce attended
the event.
Business opportunities
The Government of Andalusian is
working hard to strengthen ties
with Portugal, as it is a strategic
area. For that very reason, a
Business Promotion Unit has been
set up in Lisbon. Portugal
purchases 1,146 million euros in
Andalusian products and is a major

Andalusian agri-business production, where food
safety, R+D+i+Marketing, Mediterranean diet or
healthiness are synonymous to a job well done.
That is why LANDALUZ has always worked hand in

Major hypermarket chains
asked for simplification in
LANDALUZ project as well
as simplicity and that
promotional activities would
not interfere with daily tasks.
The Association has adapted
perfectly to this demand.
LANDALUZ came up with a
pioneering system in Spain for
international business called
“Turn-key Promotions.”
Turn-kkey Promotions
The goal of the Association is
to simplify procedures so that
promotional activities are as
simple as possible for all
those involved. Therefore,
LANDALUZ, has designed
what is called “turn-key
promotions” in which the
business association works as
the sole supplier. Thus,
LANDALUZ handles all the
logistics of the orders for the
producers, serves the good
to the designated point,
collects the invoice according
to the agreed to conditions
and pays the manufacturers
and/or producers participating
in the promotion.
In other words, the fact that
there is only one main
spokesperson for all the
companies facilitates the
organization of promotional
activities. Thus, the chain
need only register one
supplier during the
LANDALUZ promotion, with
the references that the chain
12
ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
Landaluz
has pre-selected from the
enormous list of products that our
member companies produce under
the most demanding standards of
quality. Everything is simplified in a
single invoice.
In terms of logistics, LANDALUZ
groups all the selected goods
together, and sends them to the
agreed to delivery point. Likewise,
it also provides the chain with the
necessary environmental,
decorative and promotional
materials. With all these
elements, a true “Feria de
Andalucía” (Andalusian Fair) is
re-created with the spirit, colours,
flavours and happiness of southern
Spain in the store where located.
With these promotions,
LANDALUZ strives for both the
supplier and the hypermarket chain

introduces his/her products to the
chair while the second, increases
sales and the difference with
respect to other competitors is the
true spirit of festivity at the store, as
an additional element for sales.
the best of Andalusia to your store
today. There is no stress, no
problems and you receive the best
guarantees for tailor-made service
with the “Turn-key Promotions.”
The success of this system can be
seen in the number of promotions
that LANDALUZ organises every
year, and the fact that the major
chains have repeated. For the
Association, this is never-ending
motivation in the desire to promote
foods from the region, but at the
same time, it pushes us to improve
on a daily bases when organizing
these promotional events.

Rice is not only one of the most important cereals, but one of the
world’s main staples. For hundred of millions of people, rice plays the
same role as bread for Westerners, being the second most produced
cereal in the world. Some 600 million tons are produced annually; a
figure similar to that of the other major cereals used for human
consumption such as wheat
and corn. Rice constitutes
the basic diet of about 40
countries and some 1,800
million people. At the same
time, it has become the
fundamental axis of
numerous cultures and
traditions throughout the
planet.
In Europe, Italy is the largest
rice producer with 1.4
million tons per year while
Spain produces 0.9 million
tons. However, if you had
to highlight a rice production
location in Spain’sgeography,
it would be Sevilla, the capital of Andalusia. This Spanish
province dedicates 36,000 hectares to rice, most of which is
concentrated around Isla Mayor, Los Palacios and Villafranca, and La
Puebla del Río, with a completely integrated production system that is as
close as possible to an organic product.. This rice production generates
between 400,000 and 500,000 workdays per year. Rice is decisive for
all over the world
Delicate, pleasant, simple to use, succulent,
easy to find… since rice started growing on the
Iberian Peninsula, brought here almost 13
centuries ago by the Arabs, this cereal has won
the hearts of humankind thanks to its virtues.
Rice, in other cultures traditionally dismissed as
a necessary companion at every meal, in Spain
reaches new levels of use as it is transformed
into the central axis of many of our stews and
in an indispensable element of our pantries.

farming in the area, as the
marshlands allow no other crops. It
also maintains the rural population
in addition to contributing to
sustainability and safeguarding the
environment, producing a beautiful
landscape. Therefore, rice has a
dual function: social and
environmental.
Herba, world power
With all this data, it is more than
enough to say that Spain is a world
class power in the production and
export of rice. Herba, an
Andalusian company, member of
the Ebro-Puleva Group, tops the
world rice group, marketing more
than a third of the rice consumed in
the European Union. Company
products are currently found in
over than 40 countries and it has
facilities in 16.
The history of Herba goes back to
the on-set of the 20th century,
specifically to 1911, when Antonio
Hernández Villa created a small
food company in Olvega (Soria).
Fifty years later, with the possibility
of marketing rice and to use some
land, until useless, located in the
marshes of the Guadalquivir River.
He transferred the business to the
marshes in Andalusia where fully
integrated facilities were built to
cover the sewing and harvesting of
rice, research in crop improvement
and techniques, as well as the
selection, packaging and
commercialisation of the product.
Herba’s concern for quality starts in
the rice fields themselves. There,
on a daily basis, teams of
agricultural engineers, biologists and
1188
ANDALUSI
ANDALUSIAANN FLAVOUR
FLAVOUR
experts in rice, research and
supervise the growth and
development of the current and
new varieties, always looking for
improvement in their quality and
yield.
The result of this continuous search
and improvement is especially
evident in long grain, Indica rice
varieties. This variety has been a
true revolution, as for the first time
long grain Indica rice was produced
in Europe. It earned extraordinary
acceptance within the countries of
the European Community.
When it comes to the rice
production, 90% is Indica or long
grain rice varieties, of which 80%
goes for export and 20% is
consumed domestically. The
remaining 10% is of the japonica or
round grain type and this remains
within the home market.
Integrated production
Integrated production is a
fundamental aspect of this
company, which has its main office
in Sevilla (Andalusia). It is an
intermediate step between
traditional and organic agriculture.
In modern agriculture, a
high-priority objective is to obtain
healthy, high quality agricultural
products for consumers, by using
environmental friendly cultivation
practices. To do this, Herba
promotes the use of methods that,
bearing in mind the social demands,
the profitability of the crop and the
protection of the environment,
reduce the use of chemical
products and allow them to obtain
high quality agricultural productions.
Herba, by means of their label and
brand, guarantees the
characteristics of the rice and tells
the consumer about them.
Sevilla has been the pioneer in the
implementation of integrated
production (1998) techniques of
rice in Spain and Europe. It has
been the model for the
implementation of these techniques
in other European Union
production countries.
The integrated rice production area
in Andalusia is 36,000 hectares,
concentrated in Sevilla, specifically
in the marshlands and some in the
province of Cadiz, in the Laguna de
la Janda area.
The diversification of rice types and
the commercialisation of
easy-to-heat rice with the so-called
“cups”, easy-to-use products that
adapt to the requirements of a
broad market and facilitate the daily
tasks in a world where spare time
has transformed into a luxury, have
been essential in the leap to
Europe, Latin America and the
United States. Herba has had to
reinforce its production of specific
rice, a different favourite in each
country to adapt to all tastes.
But the commercialization of
aromatic, parboiled rice and instant
rice is no longer enough for
growth. The demand in the
developed countries for products
with added value is gaining footage.
For this reason, the Herba group
has pioneered and launched a new
range of products similar to the
prepared dishes “the cups”. They
have thus become world leaders,

Spain has traditionally produced the
short (round) grain, which adapts
better to the Mediterranean climate;
although Herba has successfully
introduced the Indica varieties to
southwestern Spain.
The various types of rice are defined
by their shape. It is important to know
its different characteristics, since the
final success of the recipe largely
depends on an appropriate choice.

LONG GRAIN
The grains are more than 6 millimetres
long and the length is three times that of
the width. It constitutes 85% of the
world trade in rice. It is a light, very dry
rice, it does not stick, it remains loose
after the cooking, is very suitable for
salads and as a garnish. Amongst the most
important varieties of this type of rice is
Basmati rice, which is an aromatic rice
that comes from the valleys of the
Himalaya and has a grain of an
immaculate white colour, and Thai rice,
which has an aroma of jasmine.
types of Rice
Although more than 8,000
different varieties of rice have been
catalogued, these are classified into
three principal groups:
· Short Grain or japonica.
· Long grain or Indica.
BASMATI
A Hindu-Pakistani rice with a long and
very fine grain. After being cooked, it
remains whole and loose and preserves a
characteristic aroma reminiscent of
walnuts. It is considered one of the best
rices in the world.
ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR 23
WILD
An aquatic rice that grows wild alongside the
Great Lakes of North America. It is slim, of a
dark colour and has a crunchy texture. After
being cooked, it remains whole and is an ideal
garnish for meats, fish and salads.
24 ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
WHOLE GRAIN
Whole grain or brown rice is one in which the
shell is removed, but the bran remains. Brown
rice is shelled, but not polishing, it therefore
preserves its bran and cuticle with all the fibres
and vitamins contained in this part.
THAI
The jasmine aroma of this rice stands out. It can
be served boiled in an oriental manner, as
garnish for fish and shellfish.
PARBOILED
This has almost the same nutritional values as
whole grain. It does not overcook, nor does it
stick, although it takes longer to cook and
absorbs little of the flavours of the ingredients
that accompany it. parboiled rice undergoes a
process of vaporization and
subsequent drying before proceeding to having
the shell removed: this technique allows the shell
removal to be carried out easily and ensures that
some of the vitamins and minerals of the bran
pass into the rice grain.
ROUND GRAIN
It´s consumed greatly in Spain. It has a soft and
tender texture and it tends to stick if the cooking
time is prolonged. The most characteristic is
Bomba rice, which retains the starch and always
remains loose even if the cooking time is
prolonged. It´s suitable for creamy rice, Italian
risottos and the many variations of rice with milk.
GLUTINOUS
After cooking, the grains stick to one another
due to their high starch content, this makes it
essential for the preparation of some dishes of
Chinese and Japanese cuisine such as “sushi”.

From the Egyptian civilization until today, the presence of chickpeas
and lentils have been a constant in our diets. From the New World,
white and red beans were later incorporated into the group. It
wasn’t long before they became a staple in Mediterranean cuisine.
In nutritional terms, beans are an important food group. Historically,
the various beans have been an outstanding part of Andalusian and
Spanish cuisine, within the traditional Mediterranean diet.
Until the sixties, in most Spanish homes, legumes were eaten daily.
Due to social-cultural aspects, consumption has reduced slowly until
now it is almost nonexistent in certain areas. Today, its excellent
features as a healthy food within the concept of a Mediterranean
diet have been underscored and, given its easy conservation in the
refrigerator and heating in the microwave, it is appearing on dinner
tables in Spain once again. In nutritional terms, both beans and peas
are a complete food source. Thanks to the facility with which they
combine with other foods, and their easy conservation and storage,
they have become an extremely functional ingredient that must not
be overlooked by any good cook.
Traditionally, the most commonly used legumes include: lentils,
chickpeas and white or pinto beans. Also included in this group are
lima beans and dried peas.
Changes in eating habits and the fact that these ingredients are part
of the well-regarded Mediterranean diet have allowed them to be
adapted to new demands in cuisine. They are beginning to appear
as essential ingredients in refreshing seasonal salads that help combat
the high summer temperatures.
Moreover, legumes, from lentils to beans, without forgetting
chickpeas, contain large amounts of proteins, carbohydrates, mineral
salts and vitamins, which are all essential in a healthy and
well-balanced diet.
ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
essential ingredients in the Mediterranean diet
Since the beginning of time, legumes (beans)
have been associated, together with cereals,
with the initial symbols of humankind’s
gastronomy, which until then, was limited to
eating wild fruits and when possible, roast
game on the fire.

Each Spaniard eats 4.8 kilos of legumes a year; of this
amount 1.8 kilos are chickpeas, 1.6 kilos are white
beans and 1.4 kilos are lentils. Of all the legumes
eaten, 83% are packaged while 17.1% are sold in
bulk.
On the other hand, the common belief that these
foodstuff are fattening must be forsaken. Once
cooked, the calorie content of chickpeas is, for
example, no more than 250 calories. There are even
less calories in white beans or lentils, depending on
the additional ingredients used when cooking them.

Campo de Tejada
Since ancient times, it is well known that the chickpeas
produced in the “Campo de Tejada” area, located in the
Andalusian province of Huelva, have an extraordinary
quality due to soil where they are grown. The land
where these chickpeas are grown is known by the locals
as “tierras de bujeos” which is a type of black clay soil.
The most outstanding characteristic of this earth,
amongst its other properties, is its high potassium
content, which ensures that the chickpeas have a very
fine skin and extraordinary cooking.
With the creation of Campo de Tejada co-op, producers
are able to commercialize all the products from the
district. The process began with the registration of the
“Campo de Tejada” trademark and the purchase of a
second trademark that already existed in the market,
which was “Escacena”. Then, an automatic chickpea
packaging machine was purchased to pack the products
into polypropylene bags. The cooperative currently has
34 ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
legumes
modern facilities for the cleaning, classifying and
packaging of the chickpeas, in various formats.
The success of the milky white chickpea quality is not
motivated by the origin of the product alone, but rather
it is also the result of strict quality controls that the
cooperative has imposed right from the start. These
quality controls are carried out throughout the entire
crop growing and production process and lead to the
rejection of a major percentage of the total production
as they fail to meet the quality requirements.
Milky white chickpea
Currently, for Campo de Tejada, the conservation of the
chickpea variety “Blanco Lechoso” (Milky White) is a
high-priority objective. This has already been registered
in the Oficina de Variedades Vegetales (Office of
Vegetable Varieties) so as to be able to multiply this
variety, just as is done in certified seed production.

varieties of beans and peas.
This firm, located in the town of Chiclana
in the province of Cadiz, has two 3000meter warehouses. The way in which the
raw materials are selected guarantees
maximum product excellence. Legumes
are purchased at the various production
areas, and later classified and selected at
company facilities through the latest and
most advanced technologies, so as to
offer consumers the very best quality.
“Legumbres La Pedriza” commercialises
more than 3000 metric tons of legumes
from both national and international
growers. Of the legumes, the various
types of Andalusian chickpeas are the
most important, especially in regard to
sales. Eighty percent (80%) of the
production is sold on Spain’s domestic
market in a number of formats and
brands, including La Pedriza and Tentudía.
The other 20% are exported to such
countries as Portugal, Italy, Algeria,
Morocco and Egypt.
In statistical terms, the annual chickpea
production tops 1800 metric tons, of
which 1400 are grown and harvested
domestically and 400 tons are imported.
In regard to lentils, the production is 550
metric tons, of which 200 originate in
Spain and 350 from abroad. Most all
white beans, 580 tons of the 600 tons
sold, are imported. Finally, the rice
production is 120 metric tons, all of
which is produced nationally.

young trekker, who can spend the night at a
camping site, and for the more demanding travellers, housed
in any one of the exclusive properties that are plentiful in the
area.
Aracena and the surrounding area have been inhabited since
the dawning of time. From the 3rd millennium B.C. there are
the remains of lithic (stone) workshops in the Cueva de la
Umbría (Caves). There are remains of the town of
Castañuelo, which date back to the middle of the 2nd
millennium, and also of the Celtic culture that settled in the
area in the 5th century B.C. From the remains uncovered, it
is known that in addition to agriculture, these people worked
metal.
In the first century, the Romans settled to exploit its mines.
They used a system of small agricultural settlements to sustain
the establishment and this was, probably the origin of
Aracena and of several of the towns of the area.
At the end of the 15th century, Aracena was the most
populated town in the province of Huelva. The city is
presided by high knoll known as Cerro del Castillo. It was
built in the 13th century over an old Muslim fortress.
According to some specialists it is probable that it had links
with the Templars, although it also appears to have belonged
to the Caballeros de la Orden de Santiago (Knights of the
Order of St. James). A labyrinth of passageways, lakes and
walls inundated with stalactites and stalagmites lie under the
knoll. This is the Gruta de las Maravillas (Grotto of the
Marvels), of which somewhat more than 1,000 meters of
pathways, conditioned with lights, music and colour, are open
to the public. Also interesting are the Mining Museum and the
Museum of Contemporary Sculptures, which are outdoors.
Equally interesting are the Fuente de la Zulema (Zulema
fountain), or the start (headwaters) of the river Odiel, in
Marimateos.

Popular tradition goes on to say that its discoverer was a shepherd who went into
the woods in search of a strayed animal… History grants the merit to the mine
engineer Gonzalo Tarín, who, in one of his works referred to the Gruta de las
Maravillas. When it comes to describing the cavern, tradition and legend shake
hands: the whiteness and brilliance captivated the mine engineer as well as the
shepherd. The latter, according to legend –called the entrance that he used to the
grotto “Pozo de las Nieves” (the Snow Well). Today, part of that tradition has
become reality, and the road on which the entrance to the grotto lies has inherited
the mentioned name.
After the shepherd and mining engineer, in 1911, the Marquee of Aracena an Juan
Cid, Town Mayor launched the tourist industry at the time. After the initial work,
the Gruta de las Maravillas opened the first route to the public in 1914; in 1927,
after other rooms had been discovered, the tourist route was expanded.
Located in the very centre of Aracena, to the northeast of the province of Huelva,
the Gruta de las Maravillas is 89 kilometres from Sevilla and some 70 from
Portugal. Water falling on the Cerro del Castillo (Castle Hill) and the subsequent
erosion originated a cavity that holds a variety of formations: vertical and eccentric
stalactites, stalagmites, castings, plain curtains, aragonites and coralloid.
This horizontal area is differentiated by three levels of overlapping galleries. The
underground complex has a know length of 2,130 meters, of which only 1,200 are
open to the public.
It is from here that a most enchanting into the depths of the Cerro del Castillo
begins; it takes an hour to contemplate the lakes, walk through eternal spaces and
see the various whims of Mother Nature. From the entrance hall, one goes down
the stairs to enjoy – thanks to the perspective offered from aloft- the Sala de las
Conchas (the Shell Room). A small gallery leads to the Salón de los Brillantes
(Diamond Room). A small staircase leads to the Salón del Gran Lago (the Great
Lake Room). Later, the grotto gives way to other rooms such as La Esmeralda (the
Emerald), La Cristalería de Dios (God´s Glassware) or Los Desnudos (The
Naked).
Guides will always take the lead during the visits and are the person in charge of
handing down history to the visitor. The inform visitors that one day, many years
ago, it was in this very Grotto where an animal gave an eternal gift to his shepherd
or that it was a mining engineer who enjoyed the privilege of talking about the
beauty of the cavern in the province of Huelva in one of his works.

who when speaking, fails to provide
any indications of his powerful signing
voice; a voice that has been defined by
experts as baroque or wooden. In
spite of his tender age (he is only 26
years old), Lombo has taken the
essence and the art of Andalusia,
Flamenco, to stages all over the world,
the most important being the
Metropolitan of New York City. His
years at the Cristina Heeren Flamenco
Foundation have marked his career;
nonetheless he feels a debt towards
the founder, a woman in love with
Andalusia, who has become his
sponsor. Almost ready to release his
first album, Manuel Lombo, only
aspires to have a place in music. Keep
an eye on him, because, without a
doubt, much will be said about him.
Music is the universal language; do you
believe that this is a good way to define
flamenco?
Yes, I believe that with flamenco even
more, since it is a pure and direct
transmission of feelings. The “cantes”
or songs always express different emotions, depending even on the “palo” or
style; some cantes appear to be more
sorrowful, tragic and others joyful; I
think it would be a good
definition, in fact when we go abroad,
people without even understanding the
language feel the emotion.
Is flamenco well understood outside
Spain?
Apart from performing at the
Metropolitan of New York City, I have
traveled around the world since I was
13 and I have been in a number of odd
places for flamenco, like the case of
Albania, but in all the places I have
been I have had the same reception,
just on entering the stage people
ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
61
“Flamenco has something special”
Manuel Lombo is a small man,

Ideas

Ideas
started to quiver, it is true that flamenco has something
special.
With which singer do you identify most?
I have my favourite singers, because I was the student of
an exceptional singer, such as Naranjito de Triana, and I
was lucky to be one of his students at the Cristina
Heeren Flamenco Foundation. I also like the style of Jose
de la Tomasa. From the current singers I very much
admire Enrique Morente, and his daughter Estrella, and
Miguel Poveda, and Arcangel,... people who are creating
schools within flamenco.
Your first album will be released in September, what is
the most outstanding aspect?
Above all else, I am doing an album that I like. At this
point in time, when the music market is so bad, when all
anyone is interested in is profits, I have found a label and
a producer that totally respect the album that I want to
create. I have included some
versions that I have always sung
and that my audience knows. I
feel lucky because I have had
promotion prior to the release of
the album and that is not usually
the case.
You have been an intern at the
Cristina Heeren Flamenco
Foundation, what has the
foundation given you?
Everything, and above all its
president Cristina Heeren, who
has became my sponsor and my
godmother in this world. The
Foundation has provided me with
the knowledge of flamenco singing
and even the opportunity to
perform at the Metropolitan, since
there have not been a lot of flamenco artists that have
been there. The Foundation became my true
beginnings, I shall never forget it. At a personal level it
has given me much more, as I have met some very
interesting people.
Can signing be learnt at school, like guitar playing or
dancing?
Yes, I have seen it and can back that statement; I have
had Japanese classmates and there still are some
Orientals at the Foundation. Dancing and playing the
guitar is easier, since language is not an influence, but
with signing, it is harder, however, you can in fact learn
how to sign correctly. After that, it depends on each
individual’s abilities.
Where is flamenco going right now?
Fusion is in, but orthodox Flamenco is still alive; in fact,
there are more and more schools like the Foundation,
which was a pioneer in the world. It was founded, and is
sustained with no outside help, by a North American
woman.
Do you let yourself be carried away by inspiration?
Yes; moreover, I am all heart and my state of mind
influences me; I don’t follow a
continuous line, nor are two days
ever alike, just like Curro
Romero (Well-know bullfighter in
Spain).
Where do you hope to go?
I don’t know; I’d like to have a
place in the world of music, that
my work be recognised, which,
at the end of the day, it what all
artists strive for, but I don’t have
extreme ambitions, just being at
peace in my personal life.
Do you agree that in Flamenco,
everything has already been
invented?
Yes, basically yes, but there is
always something new that
people may or may not like. I have worked with Michael
Haas, producer for Plácido Domingo and classical music,
in which excerpts of Bach were done in flamenco style.
Bach sounded like a soleá, a seguiriya; we followed the
rhythm of the seguiriyas and we were listening to Bach,
always respecting the original music, but incorporating
variations. It was a really beautiful record. We tried to
make the lyrics popular, for it to be very pure, and that
ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR 63
Ideas
hadn’t been done before. Basically, I think everything has been invented, but we
must remember that throughout history there have been singers that have
provided something new; I’ll leave that door open.
You have taken the essence of Andalusia all over the world. How are you
welcomed?
There are people who really understand it all, as the case of the Metropolitan, for
example, where people know what they are going to see; in other places, people
are surprised to discover flamenco.

64 ANDALUSIAN FLAVOUR
What do you feel when you take Andalusia and its art all over the world?
I feel very Andalusian, very patriotic, and I like it because there is a crop of people
who are breaking away from the uneducated flamenco, of the caravans. Now
flamencos are lawyers, biologists, etc. We know what we want and we are
prepared to take flamenco wherever it needs to be taken.
How would you describe Andalusia to those who have never experienced it?
Andalusia is something very special and in fact, it can be seen in the character of the
people; I am not at all surprised that we have this music and this life style.
Andalusia is alive; for example, it is the only place in the world where the regional
costume evolves, thus giving way to flamenco fashion. We have art, and we are
special, and something as special as our regional costume that is continually evolving
will never die. We are the envy of many; we make it all stay alive; Andalusia never
stagnates at artistic level.
What do you miss most when travelling?
Andalusian weather. The months I lived in New York, I missed the weather and the
landscape. When I returned from New York, I went to see the Giralda (bell tower);
ever time I come home, I grab my moped and ride around Sevilla because I have
to soak up the landscape.
And from the standpoint of gastronomy?
I really like cooking. In New York, there was a group of Spaniards and my house
was the cooking centre. Remember that with rushing about, they all ate really
poorly, so I spent time making gazpacho and potatoes with ham, onions and eggs,
which is my speciality. I remember that what I missed most were the stews.
Was it easy to find the ingredients?
Nowadays it is; there is everything; but the tomatoes, even when they had good
colour, were tasteless. It is easy to find Spanish olive oil; there was even a gourmet
shop with products from Spain and we managed to get by. We had to put all our
love into it to make it seem like our Andalusian cuisine, because neither the
potatoes nor anything tasted the same.
Would you exchange Andalusia for any other place?
I would be able to live anywhere, but my roots are here. Without the joy of the
light of Andalusia, in all truth, it would be difficult to work.
The Cristina Heeren Foundation School of Flamenco
Art is the only centre in the world that offers the
possibility of training professionally in the three
specializations of Flamenco: singling, dancing and guitar.
Orthodoxy and precision preside over the didactical
philosophy.
Although it is essential that the technique of flamenco
dominate lessons, artistic sensibility is no less important.
Teachers at the Foundation are valuable not only for
their skills based upon the highest standards in
Flamenco, but also for their search for personal
expression within each and every student.
For the Foundation, Flamenco is the result of a long
cultural process that must be sought throughout popular
Andalusian history and literature, from the
anthropological, ethnographic and sociological
perspectives; therefore, the Foundation has a complete
library and archives where students and researchers the
world over can consult the specialized bibliography on
Flamenco and Andalusia.

Heeren Flamenco Foundation
In 1993, Cristina Heeren (New York, 1943)
created in the capital of Andalusia, Sevilla, a Foundation
dedicated solely to the preservation and dissemination
of Flamenco in all its forms.The Cristina Heeren
Flamenco Foundation was created in order to promote
the knowledge, study, teaching and dissemination of
flamenco from its legitimate Andalusian roots.

expression, but is rather an ancient and
profound art born of emotion, passion and
art.The popularity of Flamenco is so
immense that it instantly brings to mind
Spain the world over.
Every year, some twenty million tourists
arrive in Andalusia for various reasons,
including sun and sand, golf, conventions,
nature, monuments, gastronomy, and the
list continues. Nevertheless, almost everyone has a common point of reference for
Andalusia, whether that reference originates
from a real or pseudo experience and no
matter how vague it may be: Flamenco.
With the passing of time, Flamenco has
undergone a number of graceful transitions
that have led to today’s current extensive
national and international expansion and
recognition.
Andalusia is a melting pot of cultures.
Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs,
Christians, and converts have all left their
mark upon the landscape of southern Spain.
Along the way, a unique means of
expression has been forged: Flamenco. It
may very well be that this Andalusian art
came to be only two centuries ago, as some
experts claim. However, Flamenco singing,
guitar playing and dancing are much more
than the expression of a people
disseminated worldwide that has been
capable of producing Flamenco within the
borders of Spain.
Flamenco is not a closed sound - just as
Andalusia itself, there exists within it a
diversity of expressions. In Andalusia, the
“palos” (or styles) of each type of song vary
depending upon its geographical origin
within the east or west of the region. In
western Andalusia, the music (known as
soleares, seguiriyas, and bulerías, as well as
all of the tunes from Cadiz, among others) is
Feeling, Passión and art
Flamenco is far from a mere folk
more rhythmic and has more beat,
while the styles from eastern Andalusia
(malagueñas, granaínas, and tarantos, as
well as all the varieties of the more
free-style taranta family) are freer and
offer greater musical wealth.
While gypsies are responsible for a
generous part of this uniquely
Andalusian musical heritage, their
contribution is not so inherent that it
completely explains its existence. The
“black sounds” mentioned by Lorca
were born of the unique cultural history
of an entire people. While they may be
children of folklore, as with any good
offspring, they have flown the nest in
order to acquire their own unique
identity.
Essentially, Andalusia is a melting pot in
which it is necessary to know much
more about than acorns, chestnuts,
jábeja fishing boats and almadraba tuna
fishing to truly understand. Part of its
soul is built upon the foundation of the
fortified musical walls in which the
Gypsies have contributed the merlons:
the quejío (or sorrowful moan).

Park). This salt is made up of the initial
crystals that form on the water surface.
The “Flor de Sal” salt crystals are much
smaller and lighter than common marine
salt due precisely to how and when they
are collected.
This salt has a lower level of sodium
chloride and a higher mineral content,
such as magnesium and it dissolves faster.

common sea salt. We recommend you

COVAP CHANGES ITS CORPORATE
STRUCTURE
OVAP, the largest social capital corporation in
Andalusia has decided to change its corporate
structure from a co-operative to a
corporation.
C
A few days ago, Tomás Aranguez, president of
COVAP, presented the 15,000 members of the
co-operative with a report by Price Waterhouse
about changes in the corporate structure of the
organization. This report provided key information
about changes: maintain the co-operative and create
a new industrial corporation incorporated.
This means that the business model launched in 1959
in the Los Pedroches area of the province of
Cordoba—livelihood of a good many families in the
area—will cease to be a cooperative to become a
corporation. At the same time, a more flexible
structure will be created—industrial cooperation—to
take charge of handling both the commercial and
industrial assets of the corporation.
