    When I started learning flamenco compases some 40 years ago, I was trapped as many beginners in a tangled mass of numbers and accents. After struggling quite a lot of time understanding the tricks of getting the compas internalised, I started to take lessons with one of the most profound guitarists, composer and recording artist Andres Batista. (First guitarist of the great Carmen Amaya). "It's okay if you count, but you will not get it in your blood as fast as with another approach that I will show you", Batista said. He, as a born catalan gypsy, coming out of a family of performing artists, had the rhythms of all palos internalised since he was a child and didn't had to count, but could understand the problems that non flamencos had with it. So when he went to record a buleria with the Madrid Philharmonic Orchestra he was quite astonished that the musicians had no problems whatsoever with the piece they had to play. After the reording session he asked the conductor how he and the orchestra managed to get the piece in compas so easily. The conductor said:" For us this buleria rhythm is quite simple. It is nothing else but an alternating rhythm of 6/8 and 3/4."
    That really is the point!! Anyone knows a 6/8 beat, where the accent lies on the first and fourth eighth note. and can easily get the feel of it, because it's so common in all of our music. Same goes for the 3/4 rhythm. Here the accent lies on the first quarter note. What you have to do now is to put an accent on all quarter notes of the 3/4. Now lets get started then: 1,2,3,4,5,6,1,+,2,+3,+etc. alternating. You can see that it has 12 counting beats as the flamenco compas.
    If you take the flamenco counting time 12 and place it on the first eight note of the 6/8 then all the flamenco accents coincide with the accents of the standard 6/8 and 3/4. The whole pattern through.
    So buleria then starts on the first eighth note (which is 12 in flamenco counting)of 6/8.
    Alegrias, solea, solea por bulerias, etc. starting on the second eighth of 6/8. Siguiriyas, serranas, livianas, martinete, etc. start at the second quarter note of the 3/4.
    It all may sound complicated but in reality it isn't!
    Nevertheless all the efforts that this great flamenco aficionado and guitarist Kai Narezo is putting into his explanations should be a bible for all aficionados. Every word he says is golden. Keep the spirit!
    I was only in here to give a little help, as it was given to me some odd 40 years ago!

      Thanks! For a song many know, this is also the base rhythm underneath 'America' from West Side Story. But I didn't connect them until you described the hemiola pattern in time signatures above!

    Excellent formal lesson in palmas. Although beat tempo and meter are vital, the final aim is performance without the counting voice over. Even in practicing, silent counting can still produce a stumble. Before and or after demonstrations of each technique as in performance would lead to a quicker intuitive sense in picking up the "knack". Now all I want is a metronome with hand claps sounds.

    Could you tell me what metronome did you use, and the speed for the contras? and if you suggest a specific speed for practicing the different palos? Thank you so much!!It's a great video, very helpful!!

    • @FlamencoExplained
      @FlamencoExplained  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Karina - So glad it's helpful! The metronome I used is actually just the one I have on my phone. It's an app called Pro Metronome and it's made by EUM. It's a great metronome, but really anything will do, and it's fine not to have any accents, like an old-school tick-tock metronome. I don't love giving out tempos because that stresses some people out :). I'd recommend just finding a tempo that feels comfortable until you feel like you're starting to really understand it, then speed it up little by little. Once you really feel good give up the metronome and start doing palmas along with the music you listen to or videos you watch. This way you don't have to worry about any numbers! I hope that helps some!

      YES! So true. English is not the language of Flamenco, so therefore, we should always have basic knowledge of the Spanish language to have the full experience and feel of the music.

    is that an automatic watch? don't wear an automatic while clapping like that. It could damage your watch movement.
