Zata, quote:
A "remate" is a closing. Compás doesn't close, guitarists, singers and dancers do. Estela 'Zata' This is one of those 'meaning of life' statements. I can't play ALL night and need to stop at some point, for a pee, a coffee or just to rest my fingers and streatch my legs, I guess the same applies to Singers and Dancers. When I stop however, I normally try to do this on beat 10, I know this as 'remate' but I might have it wrong. (I mentioned earlier that Vicente sprung a 9 on me on one of his CD's) I know that within the giant ticking of the universe, compas goes on, probably invested within the movements of the planets as they revolve around the sun, who knows? but flamenco stops from time to time. Cheers Jim.

quote: A "remate" is a closing. Compás doesn't close, guitarists, singers and dancers do. "30 remates to finish falsetas" http://www.ctv.es/USERS/norman/segment.htm "a remate typically used by Manuel Serrapí "Niño Ricardo" (beats 10-12)." http://www.ctv.es/USERS/norman/evolution.htm "Remate- the end of a phrase from the Spanish (v) to finish something (rematar). " http://www3.telus.net/OscarNieto/Glossary.html#R "the remate which ends a phrase" http://www.flamenco-world.com/magazine/about/oscarherrero/herrero.htm This illustrates the point...falsetas, Niño Ricardo, phrasing...these are musical questions relevant to guitar. Cante and compás existed before toque. You could also talk about taconeo, redobles and turns for dancers, or salidas, melisma, ayeo or trabalenguas for singers. The whole lot, and much more, is beholden to the compás, it's the law of rhythmic (as opposed to free-form) flamenco. Possibly the problem is a guitar-centric perspective (?). Estela 'Zata'
