The alboreá or albolá is a flamenco palo which is sung only in Gypsy marriage rites and many Gypsies refuse to sing it outside this context or in the presence of non-Gypsies. It is linked to the Gypsy romance and derives many lyrics from it.The rhythm and guitar accompaniment is identical with the soleá. The lyrics are usually formed stanzas with four 6-syllable lines.
