corpusCOFLA Metadata

The corpusCOFLA is a collection of more than 1500 flamenco recordings which are representative of what is considered classical flamenco. All contained tracks are taken from 12 commercially available flamenco anthologies in order to minimize a possible bias towards geographic location, singer or record label. We provide the editorial meta-information together with the musicBrainz IDs for all tracks as well as the anthologies as XML documents.

Content:

• corpus meta data (619KB): XML file containing editorial meta-information for all tracks: source (anthology, CD number, track number), artist, title, style and musicBrainzID.
• anthology meta data (3KB): XML file containing editorial meta-information for all anthologies comprising the corpus: name, record label, year edition, year re-edition, number of CDs

Version 1 (released Nov 23rd, 2017):

• the anthology “Antología del Cante Flamenco. Flamencología.” is no longer commercially available and has been removed from the corpus
• in the corpus meta-data, a field “style_annotated” has been added, which contains unified styles annotations
• singer names have been assigned unique identifiers
