EL BOLERO


The bolero was invented by Sebastián Cerezo of La Mancha in 1780. 
This dance was created for the amusement of the nobility.

It consists of an entry and this one divided in 2 or 3 parts differentiated by "un paró".

The rythm is ternary like “the Fandango”.

One of the first Valencian “boleros” was the “ El bolero vell de xátiva” from the 18th century.
