AB In their trips to New York and Spain respectively, Federico García Lorca andLangston Hughes observed a similarity between the African-American and Gypsycommunities. In their views, this similarity was also expanding into the musical realmbetween the prevailing musical genres of these communities, the blues and flamenco. Theaim of this study is to explore this musical relationship, defining the points they have incommon and contextualizing it within the work of both poets. To this end, the first part ofthe research focuses on the analysis of the travels of both writers, comparing their poeticwork and orienting it towards the comparison of these musical genres. The examples takenshow that there is a great affinity between them; that their cultural proximity is notcircumstantial but real, objective. This relationship became even more evident as the 20thcentury progressed, when many musicians mixed these styles into innovative creations.
