The guitar is the most typical instrument of flamenco. It goes with the singing and the dancing, together with the palmas (hand claps) and the cajón. Flamenco was born in Andalucía and has been an Intangible Heritage of Humanity since 2010. The gaita is typical of Galicia and Asturias, and the piano is not part of flamenco. A very famous guitarist was Paco de Lucía.
