All the Names of the Toque: Towards Consolidation, 19th and 20th Centuries

Which guitarists took flamenco guitar from the cafés to the concert stage?

A tribute to all the names we know of the tocaores (guitarists) who brought the toque to its consolidation, many of them linked to the Alameda de Hércules, in order of birth.

I continue with this tribute of mine to all the names of the toque that we know.

The evolution of the toque is a boundless universe, worthy of a flamenco professorship.

On this historical walk I propose, we will follow an invisible trail of those hands that found in the strings of the guitar both a passion and a trade, together with the memory of the giants of cante and baile whom I will honour in the coming chapters.
