Verdiales are a Flamenco music style, and song form belonging to Canté Chico.
Originating near the Spanish port of Málaga in Andalusia, it is based upon the fandango. For this reason, the Verdiales are sometimes known as Fandangos de Málaga..
Normally played in the key of E major (rarely, A minor), the Verdiales have a 12-count rhythm similar to the Soleares, and Bulerias.
