| Aspect | Sevillanas | Flamenco |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | 4 coplas (set figures) | Flexible sections |
| Mood | Festive, social | Ranges: profound to festive |
| Context | Ferias, parties | Stages, peñas, streets |
Quick Cue
- If the dance repeats figures in four cycles, it’s likely sevillanas; if the structure shifts with letras and llamadas, you’re in flamenco territory.
