I'm practicing basic rhythm for solea, bulerias etc ... Which falsetas to choose first for the different styles? Perhaps you could make some suggestions on basic level, that would be fine. I'll then practice and present the results 'cause I'm lost in so many beautiful but to difficult falsetas listening to the tops...
RE: which falsetas for basics? (in reply to guido)
Hi Guido,
For easy falsetas check out the recordings of Paco Aguilera, Antonio Delgado, Andrés Heredia, Luis Maravilla and others from the old school. Not all old recordings have easy falsetas, though (Montoya, Ricardo, Melchor...)
Nowadays nobody plays simple falsetas. You can try Fernando Moreno, but sometimes his playing isn't so easy. Chanito, the son of Chano Lobato, is a good one for beginners. Both recorded with Chano Lobato.
