When it comes to music genres in Catalonia, there is hardly a more iconic one than Catalan Rumba, born in the Romani communities of Barcelona. Alejandra Angulo is joined by Cristina Tomàs White and Gerard Escaich Folch to talk you through Catalan Rumba's origins, main figures and current state. All this and more while playing great hits! This week's Catalan phrase is ''amics per sempre". Literally, 'friends forever', our little homage to the song performed by Catalan band Los Manolos.
