CASTANETS PALILLOS CASTAÑUELAS COMPARISON Arleen Hurtado

This video aims to show the different sound qualities of various castanets. The better the quality usually means they are easier to play and stay in "compas". Some of the "cheap" models sound nice but contribute to hand and arm fatigue to get a clean sound. One pair (#7) was almost un-playable until I changed the worn out vintage strings to a new thick cotton pair. Also, although inexpensive, pair #6 have a sound that mixes into the flamenco music nicely.

Вот это искусство! У каждого народа есть чтото такое , единичное, а Спания, это чтото с чемто, как мне нравится эти танцы, боже мой...с уважением из Молдовы...

[@ArleenHurtado]

Спасибо! Это забавное занятие для меня, чтобы попрактиковать свои навыки ритма.

[@ricknjane5461]

Now that is really interesting. Thanks for the tone check we learned something new.

I love Castanets so much because they resemble drums, and I like to play drums. But Castanets have a special sound for the music of my ancestry which I am fascinated by.

[@ReginaVidaluz]

Thank you!

[@mariaestherponce7680]

Es un video muy explicativo de como desde la sonoridad y el aspecto físico de las castañuelas un novato con poca formación musical y de baile podria elegir una u otra para cada ocasión.

[@lovernotfighter]

number 4 sounded the best to me.

[@dianadiaz1825]

[@nauonevabb]

[@ArleenHurtado]

Gracias! :)

[@bennettkuwan5875]

I like the 3

[@dolorescatalanpinto4027]

El 1me gusta su sonido

[@panteranegra4548]

El sonido de mis castañuelas son igual de lo número siete y ocho. Bien difícil ¿mira?

[@rm2020able]

Las Vela y Galiano son las mejores...me pregunto sí ¿ siguen vendiendo las Galiano y si así es donde se pueden comprar ?

[@ramonasimo]

Ya no se encuentran.Sólo en Wallapop y a precio desorbitado, 500 euros o más.

#2 Galiano and #3 are the best!

[@ArleenHurtado]

+Fernando Graça I agree with you about the Galianos! These are my most prized castanets, they don't make them anymore and are over 25 years old and are very difficult to find.

[@rosabscura]

I liked Gidget

[@ArleenHurtado]

Oh good! :)

[@FB3Network]

Number 7 is the best in my opinion.
And to be honest, I really disliked the Tear Drop Cuban sound. Worst one in my opinion.

[@CT2507]

i liked Galiano the best.

[@ArleenHurtado]
