Escobilla is a zapateado where the performing bailaora gives her own personal touch, moving her arms and body together in harmony, and with the most intense flamenco expression on her face.
Zapateado and redoble are the components of escobilla.
Escobilla is the part of a dance performance where the bailaor uses his zapateado techniques as a form of interlude for the cantaor.

The traditional dance technique associated with both the son jalisciense and son jarocho is the zapateado.

Of Spanish, Indigenous and African influence, son is expressed through sung poetry, and polyrhythms created by instruments and zapateado (footwork), which vary by region.
Son jarocho, born in the countryside of southern Veracruz, is played on various stringed (requinto, jarana) and percussion (jaw of a donkey, marimbol, zapateado) instruments.

The zapateado is a minor style in flamenco.

A mix of indigenous, African and Spanish rythms, the melodies and the lyrics of son jarocho express the everyday happenings of the people living in the country, harvesting the fields, falling in love and losing that love.

Gubaidulina’s deep-rooted belief in the mystical properties of music is embodied in her use of simple elements of expression to achieve heightened musical tension.
Pablo de Sarasate (1844-1908), the internationally renowned Spanish violin soloist and composer, originally wrote Zapateado for violin and piano.
