Former vocal coach specializing in Western musicRyo
With the motto “Learn the basics and enjoy putting them into practice,” I worked as a vocal coach specializing in Western music. As a teen, I questioned the idea that “Western music equals English,” and started listening to songs from around the world. Today, I devour music from over 80 countries and run a personal blog introducing tracks. I often listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. I’ll keep updating articles daily to find the one perfect song you’re looking for!

Spain is one of the Western European countries that places a special importance on music.

As exemplified by flamenco, Spain has its own unique musical traditions.

However, it’s rare to find Japanese media that accurately describe the real Spanish music scene.

In this piece, we’ll break down the realities of music in Spain.

We’ll introduce artists who represent each genre, so if you’re looking to discover Spanish artists you’ll love, don’t miss this.

Now, please sit back and enjoy!

When people think of Spain, many probably picture flamenco or the bolero, but in fact it’s also a country of opera.

There are even operas that take Spain as their theme, like Granada.

Among the singers who are especially beloved in Spain’s opera world is Plácido Domingo.

He is the great opera singer who once performed as one of the Three Tenors alongside Italy’s Luciano Pavarotti and his compatriot José Carreras.

He is an opera singer with exceptional expressive power, so be sure to check out his dramatic repertoire as well.
