A great source for learning about cante is the latest DVD remastering of the Documentary called "Rito y Geografia del cante flamenco". They did not quite finish remastering the entire series, but the quality of research, material, and performances is gold. I think they have 18 of the full 24 discs, each disc has 4 episodes with focus on either style, region, or a person. Filmed in early 1970's they caught some greats on film at a time some were very old and on the way out of this world, and other new pioneers were just starting. A great epoc for studying the genre. These vids go hand in hand with some audio cante anthologies such as the "magna antalogia" of blas vega, etc. There are also a set of baile and guitar videos that draw from some of the above program, with additions from other TV programs that really help, but honestly you can learn a lot by searching for specific things on youtube. In the end, experience will be your fastest method of learning. Try to hang with the more advanced flamencos you can find, if you have the opportunity, and you learn a lot. For example perhaps an old dance teacher is very knowledgeable and you can get all you need from such a source, including things about guitar playing and cante you might not get from lesser experienced individuals on the scene. Good luck.
