    Guillermo, at last I found someone who agrees with me! I was lucky when I started flamenco 20 years ago with the Sevillanas, which I always felt as a shifting triple-duple beat, but my teacher insisted that it was in 3/4. The experience convinced me very early on that the Sevillanas and the Fandango de Huelva were polyrhythmic, an attitude that I carried on into the 12-beat compases. One interesting thing about the Sevillanas: Because of the polyrhythmic structure, sometimes the strong beats coincide, and sometimes they happen one after the other. Where they happen one after the other is where the rasgueado occurs, almost as if the guitar tries to "smear" the two successive strong beats together. I don't know if you'll agree with me about this. In any case it's a relief to finally get some validation, especially from an expert like you!

    • @FlamencoMAPS
      @FlamencoMAPS 19 днів тому

      Thanks! So glad to hear that! I’m very intrigued about what you said about the rasgueo but I’m not sure I understand. You mean beats 3 and 5 that are 2 consecutive accents?

      Hola Vero! 🙃 Yes it really depends on the context, and what “tablao” means in that context. If it’s just another show, then any palo can be there, if it’s completely improvised, then the selection of palos is more reduced. Abrazo!

      For letras, usually yes, always with the flexibility of interpretation! Singers can always stretch, squeeze, or start "a medio compás" (in the middle of a compás), but in general yes! Coletillas lines are shorter and cover half a compás, so you need 2 lines of a coletilla to cover 1 compás (and they start with a pick-up landing on 12). Escobilla melodies cover 2 compases (what we call a "rueda de escobilla").

    Guillermo, thank you for pointing out that letras don't define the palo. Through my listening I began to notice that certain lyrics reappeared time and again in different recordings. (I also noticed that one cante can share one or more letra with another cante.) But I never listened carefully to see if the palo is also different. I will now.

    Thanks for this video. Like many things, the meaning of "compas"is based on the context. I'm lookimng forward to more of your videos that drill down on the understanding of compas.

      Let me know how it goes! Plenty to explore on the channel! 😈😉

    Thank you. I never understood that the Estrobilla was essentially the "chorus". Additional long rambling 😂question. I thought the Colletia was sung when the dancer "went to the corner" and that the cantaor would shorten/lengthen depending on the cues they interpreted from what the dancer was doing and vice versa. Especially Bulerias por Fiesta. I've tried to figure out as a dancer how to listen and signal properly so I leave respectfully, properly and in synch. Anything you can help me and fellow dancers with?

      Thanks for your comment and for watching! It’s « Estribillo » and not « estrobilla » 😆😆 Yes, coletillas and estribillos are usually sung at the end of a baile or a patá por buleria while the dancer wraps up and exit the stage. And yes, the usual cue for the singer is when the dancer goes to the corner. When this happens, then the singer is usually waiting for the dancer to exit, not the other way around. Once you have given your cue to communicate that you’re leaving, you just leave, quickly or taking your time, it’s up to you. The singer will “provide” cante until you’re gone or you have “rematado”. But careful with the dancer’s bias here 😉 coletillas and estribillos can be danced, but they are primarily cante elements and can exist without the dance. I hope it answers the question!

    Guillermo, I have been working my way through your videos. Today I came back to this one and I was able to grasp so much more of your message. I'll be going back to basics, assessing where I am with the palo I know most, solea, and the dialect I speak, guitar. I find that I have some technique, I have been working on compas with your videos, but I'm starting out to learn language elements and cante. Thank you for lesson, it has been eye opening.

    This is really wonderful! Exactly the way flamenco should be described and taught. So many flamencos, especially in the US rely on choreography and memorization. The arte of the conversation is getting lost.

      Thanks! Not only in the US, it’s just the way it is usually taught… but things are changing!

    This is great! Can we please have a ‘Guide To Palos For Dumb Gringos’? Flamenco is so vast, complex and nuanced that I am lost.

      Hahaha! Yes it’s something I’m working on, maybe with another title though 😂 thanks!
