Flamenco Harmony Explained | 30-minute Course

- Yes, Flamenco harmony is relatively simple!
I hope you caught up with all the information in the video, sorry if it was fast I didn't want to make the video extremely long.
Now to that topic of Flamenco Harmony, all that I was trying to show in the video was basically the Palo's that are based, "ie: Resolve on the Phrygian Dominant Mode", basically share the same concept of the cadence.
You can do the exact same chord progression, (Simple one I focused on was just the basic Am- G -F - E), and in every key you will have different possibilities by using different chord "Shapes, Positions, and open strings".
I already explained in the video so I don't want to ramble on even more here. I hope that you find it useful in any way or even better, if it actually made you see things a bit simpler when it comes to flamenco harmony.
Take care!

Thank you ! It would be nice to have a similar explanation about major key palos, like Alegrias... and if/how the cadence somehow fits into to them as well
@@olaszfiu sure thing. Major palos the cadence changes to (Sub Dominant, Dominant and Tonic). Playing in C that is (F-G7-C)
That’s the short quick answer.
Cheers
Thanks Luciano, very nice video. One question... would you say that the Rondeña tuning creates some sort of mixed sensation between phrygian and lydian? I think I can feel it to a less extent also in Minera and what makes them sound so dreamy and magical. Thanks
@jorpese Yes, in a way all of these flamenco palos do. Because of that Add flat 9, it feels like you’re hanging in between (let’s say in the case of E Phrygian Dominant) E, and F Lydian. It’s so cool and sounds mysterious.
the rhythms you're playing are amazing
I've been looking for a simple explanation of flamenco harmony like this for years. Please, more videos like this 🙏 Muchísimas gracias!
I like how you can record a perfect 30min video without cutting any thing❤❤
I did so many cuts haha
But thanks anyway I try to cut less whenever I can.
Cheers!

This is an absolute masterclass! Luciano, what an incredible lesson and your playing is amazing too. Thank you dude.
Best TH-cam flamenco video lesson i ever saw
What a master class Luciano! Amazing.
Thanks.
The amount of knowledge you possess is incredible! I dream to play with the ease and touch you do one day. Thank you for all the effort you put into teaching the public what you know!
Great work! This is a introduction which explains the basics to beginners and at the same time it is very interesting for advanced players because there are a lot of beautiful uncommon ideas in the playing which enrich the music.
I've never been confused because I didn't start playing guitar through classical guitar teachings and music theories.
Music theory is good for advanced players to advance their musical grammar. But it is only a path to confusion if music theory is the tool you use to learn flamenco.
Then my friend here has to come and put these wonderful videos to undo the confusion.
Please learn flamenco first based on position (Arriba, medio, abajo) first as well as compas/palmas... and cante.
Good luck
my man solved flamenco :P i love how you start showing and you finalyy get all fired up from the fire of flamenco.. please teach me. I'm from greece
WOW I have to say It has never been explained to me this way. I have to watch this a few times tomorrow and try... Very Very helpful. Thank you.

What a treat! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Very informative.
My pleasure, thanks for watching.
What did you do, master? You brought out the lungs of the guitar, I couldn't find words to say, you are wonderful.❤❤❤
Great Vid dude! Very practical analysis.
Great class! Congrats. Love the sound and the soniquete you have!
Thanks!
Clear as a silver bell. Great job of summing up the basic harmonic structure of so many palos.
Gracias Luciano!
Brilliant!! Thank you
Thank you my friend..helpful
Thank you maestro 🎼🎼🎼, love these long videos
Nice clear and simple explanation of a simple, yet very rich and colorful art. I begun the study just a year ago and enjoy each moment of it. Thank you.
Increíble video! Enhorabuena flamenco!!! 😍👌👏 Gracias 🙌
You can consider the C major in solea as a natural substitute for the A minor - it fits beautifully (ie the relative minor)
Yes true!
Thank you for dedicating the time and effort to produce this video, it offers tremendous value to anyone pursuing the flamenco sound!
Thank you Victor! I really appreciate your donation. I hope the video serves you well!
Thank you Luciano. What a beneficial and fun work!
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
Loved your falseta at the end. This has definitely helped me hone the way i think about harmony in flamenco into something a lot more structured. I could always hear the simple harmony overall but you've just turned it more concrete for me. Thank you!!!
Bravo!!! grazie per questa Lezione 👏👏
Bien Luciano, ese cariño a tu mascota me ha emocionado tanto como tú música.
Very useful very helpful, thank you Maestro 👍🙏🎶🎶
Excelente aula de harmonia flamenca Luciano👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😁
The Reyes sounds incredible! Great video! Thank you maestro...
Which guitar is this?
Keep doing this man
Loved this. I saw Paco Pena play live three times, once in a private audience in a living room in London. My mother was obsessed with Flamenco an as a small child in the 1970s my mother would take me to her flamenco dancing tuition where there would be a world class flamenco guitar player in the dance studio. She would sneakily record on a tape cassette player (I have them now). This takes me right back to when we would go the the basement of a north London kebab shop where the afficinados would gather on a sunday to hang out, play flamenco, dance flamenco…. As a small child with a guitar I never got beyond malagena and soliares (spelling probably wrong) but I’m always drawn to that phrygian dominant . Loved this… subscribed.
Luciano, What a great lesson. You make it simple but you caution us on the difficulties of playing flamenco. A brilliant lesson. ❤😎
Thank you!
You’re a gem Luciano ❤
I appreciate that!
Muy buenas demostraciones sobre las diferentes posibilidades de la guitarra en el flamenco.
grazie maestro per condividere il suo lavoro!saludos desde italia👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing man! ❤
very clear, thank you very much, we appreciate this content.
Buenísimo Luciano!
Fantastic, thanks brother!
Graciaas Maestro!! Excelente Clase!!!🙇♂️🙏
Thank you 🙏🏼.. really helpful
Great video! Thank you very much, you’re an incredible talented musician!! Greetings from Italy
Thank you!
Un MAESTRO en todos los sentidos: técnicamente, artísticamente, en conocimientos y enseñando, también!!!
Muy bien explicado.
Vas a conseguir que, tras varios intentos fallidos, por fin me tire al barro y me ponga a tocar de una vez.
Masterful!!!
marvelous!
Lovely sounds
Excellent only one word
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ole y olé, qué grande Luciano, y además con esa humildad que te hace tan grande... 🙌
...and so beautifully explained!! Thank you so so much for sharing all that knowledge and make it seem simple for us 💘
Thank you ❤
Splendida lezione Luciano...
C'è tanto da imparare seguendo le tue indicazioni o semplicemente osservandoti e ascoltando....
Grazie e sempre buona musica
Grazie Ben!
Muy bien explicado, me encantan tus vídeos, pedazo de guitarrista pedazo de maestro, espero conocerte en persona algún día!! Saludos maestro
Good stuff!!
Soooo cool, bro, wow, subscribed
Compadre, I love you!!! You are amazing!!! When you feel that the F7 resolve to E7(b9) (flamenco dominant), you can see F7 like a Substiute dominante from B7. B7 is the E7 dominant. F7 and B7 are almost the same... all the best for you and your music!!!
Outstanding
Nice lesson ..
merci,merci,beaucoup,je vais devoir regarder la video pour comprendre,mais c est magnifique,bravo!
great video
Thank you so much😍😍🤌🤌🤌
Such beautifful dynamic u have maestro ❤ and technic of corse ❤i think its impossiple for some one who is not born in spain ❤❤❤
Thank you! Love the cat saying it's own opinion of the video😊
Haha yes always!
Your video is amazing and also i'm learning English❤
Nice Video Luciano very well explained with your knowledge not so hard to understand it,at first we may study the guitar and understand his fretboard thanks,Saludos!
Thank you Serman. Yes understanding the guitar is truly one of the most important things you should do first!
Bien Luciano 🤓
Perfect!!
22k subscribers. Moving right along : )
Yes little by little. Thanks Mack!
Thanks luciano very much ❤️❤️but i have always difficulty with cadence and scales can you do episode of it .
You should look up CAGED system for guitar. It helps a lot for understanding the fretboard better.
THANK YOU MAESTRO! That was definitely one of the best 30 minutes of my ever puzzling life pursuit to understand how something so simple can be understood and be made with beautiful complexity 🙌😁
Particularly on the Cante de Las Minas harmonies and somehow I can see why some guitarist would come up with alternate tuning to allow access to different open strings which resulted in unique harmonical nuances. Would you like to discuss about this one day? Like how flamenco guitarists can come up with alternate tunings? (E.g Rondeña, etc)
Also what I find it beautiful with Solea is that it demonstrates how minor cadence in Flamenco relates to their major counterpart which can become another interesting topic to discuss as well. By itself, it also may break the popular stigma of flamenco being exclusively in minor tones
Well done and always love your work! A big fan from Indonesia 😁🇮🇩
Thanks for watching! Yes it’s definitely interesting how many alternate tuning you can have in flamenco and sound so unique. The magic is in the mix of the Phrygian dominant and Lydian right next to it I think. Keeping some strings open to the Lydian tonic while putting a Phrygian chord is always gonna sound so cool.
Cheers!
Thanx for video!!
Great explanation. One suggestion that, next time could you put the chords diagram vertically or mirrored horizontally (you know what I mean, hope so), it would be easier for newbies.
Just think of it like you're looking down at your hand, fretting the chord
Luciano eres un grande! Muchas gracias por este regalo.
Espero que algún dia te saques las bulerias del niño miguel!!! por dios!! hahaha un abrazo
Muchas gracias! Ok la miraré no te preocupes. Un saludo!
Thank you Luciano! Great video! Nothing really new to me but that doesn't mean that I skipped it because very rarely we can get such a good representation of the different scales and also garnered by exceptional playing. After three years of dabbling in Flamenco (Soleá, Bulería, Fandango, Rumba) I had to take a break because it is so taxing (and yes, often frustrating) practicing it. I am currently more on Hendrix stuff and rhythm guitar. Guess what, turns out Flamenco has impproved and enriched my rhythm guitar playing tremendeously!
Thank you for watching James. Flamenco will definitely improve your rhythm significantly! Requires a lot of paciente and time, definitely frustrating very often I’d say, but hopefully worth it at the end.
Cheers!
Great!
Esa taranta está desarrollada en el Telegrah Road del Alchemy. Enhorabuena niño, el algoritmo me lo recomendó y me enganché. Yo toco el bajo y se que está todo en el compás, por eso es tan dificil seguiros pero tan reconfortante cuando suena bien.
Thanks!
Thanks for the donation Nicholas!
You have such a great touch on guitar... How do you develop such professional quality of sound?
Love from Türkiye. 💯❤
This lesson sums up precisely my experience with learning flamenco : got it, got it, got it, ..,ok, get it get it.. then with the very last (beautifull) peice : "what!**¡!???" cheers, thanks for sharing.
Hahaha sorry it’s my bad.. At the end I played a Bulerias that is not based on the Phrygian! It’s a falseta that is based on the Minor key that’s why you probably felt this way, it’s not your fault.
Thanks for watching!
@@LucianoGhosnDon't worry about it. This makes you a real flamenco..
Thank you for the very informative video. I’ve been trying to understand the harmony of flamenco, especially in the modern flamenco. However, I was taking the wrong direction. The best way to do so I think is to start with the fundamentals.
1- know the skills
2- the function of each chord in the skill
3- learn the triads
4- know the notes that each chord has
And I think this is where one can start…
Yes. I recommend learning the guitar first before anything. Caged system is a great start. Then learn techniques they use in flamenco. Slowly add in the material I included in this video like understanding the cadence and such.
Playing other guitarist’s falseta’s is another great way to learn how to use the chords. Step by step!
Love you bro
Please tell me:
- trade of your guitar
- what microphone do you use to record guitar
- what trade and tension of your strings
Hola, buenísimo el vidéo. Hay alguno de tus cursos en patreon que tenga más de este tipo de contenido?. Gracias 🙏🏾
It is not simple man. It is complicated. It is maybe simple for you 😂❤. Good to hear from you. I have learned a lot from you
I think you're referring to the "application" of the flamenco harmonies--but yes, once you know some basics of guitar, this concept is quite simple. For me, it's the complexity of technique+ melodies+ etc. that makes it seem more complex than it actually is.... Happy Playing
Luciano, this is amazing. Do you share your recording setup anywhere? It's also perfect.
Thanks! I haven’t no, I wouldn’t say it’s perfect but I pay a lot of attention to what guitars I choose and how get the best sound from the guitar first and then I think how to represent it best through the microphones.
Cheers!
Taranta... I really love the sound of Taranta.
what you play as an example, really reminds me of Dominic Miller's "Shape of my Heart". Am I right in some way?
نورت يا لوسيانو
Hey Luciano! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Can you tell me the name or where I can find a lesson for this traditional falseta you play on 6:20? Cheers!
Me too 😁
NICE MAESTRO POR VIDEOS
