quote:
ORIGINAL: Deniz Just what would you accept as "original", as non-lawyer? Wheres the line? i think you have to hear it first and decide from case to case. i don't think that you can create a fixed rule for this. i think if i would recognize it as someone elses original "idea", immediately after a second you start playing, then i wouldn't call it your original work. anyway, i think in flamenco, such things are a bit more "relaxed" then lets say pop music or other styles. its more like a community and people share (also the ideas) i think paco, tomatito, etc, don't really care if others play their stuff, copy it , etc. amateurs care more than them imo

Everyone quotes Paco. Paco used to quote Niño Ricardo and Sabicas. They quoted Ramón Montoya, Manolo de Huelva, Antonio Moreno (Ricardo)... It's always been that way. Unless you're supposed to be a high-profile player with your own style, it's more than acceptable. But, even so, if a well-known and highly skilled guitarist were to use a Niño Ricardo falseta, for example, for a new recording, I think most people would probably interpret it as an act of modesty and respect: a nod rather than a quote. But in that case it would have to be just a falseta or two once in a while. In any case, if you play with someone else's ideas for long enough, you'll gradually start doing them your own way.
