Qawwali- a form of Sufi devotional music that originated in South Asia. It is present in areas with a historically strong Muslim presence, such as Pakistan. It dates back more than 700 years.
Flamenco- a style of music which is native to southern Spain. It was heavily influenced by Byzantine, Sephardic, Moorish, and New World elements. It dates back to the 15th Century.
The two are so different, yet fit together perfectly. Qawwali-Flamenco: the ultimate mashup?
