I know a singer in Madrid who gives private lessons. If you decide to 'go for it' let me know and I'll post the details. Although there will be those who say foreigners can't ever sing flamenco, it depends on what you want to sing for. As a dancer I have found learning to sing (very badly, I must admit!) really useful for those rare occasions there is a singer around. I have also worked with a non Spanish singer who has managed to perform creditable versions of Estrella Morente's songs. She also gives lessons (I think) if you are UK based. Karenanne.

Hi there, Estela, who is a member of this forum and a guiri, sings cante very well. One day at my house a young Gitana challenged her to sing, but after literally the first line, she said " Vale, es verdad puede cantar" ( OK its true she can sing) I've also heard El Pollo de Calafornia, another guirri, singing cante at a party at the Morente house. I did not even realise he was American till afterwards. The Granadino singer Juan Pinilla gives cante classes here in Granada. Here is the contact info. APRENDE CANTE FLAMENCO EN LA ESCUELA SUPERIOR DE ARTE FLAMENCO D GRANADA,CON:JUAN PINILLA(GANADOR DEL PRIMER PREMIO POR MINERAS EN EL FESTIVAL INTERNACIONAL DE LAS MINAS DE LA UNIÓN)Y DAVID SORROCHE(DISCIPULO DE CALIXTO SÁNCHEZ)TLEF:958084138 Y 647421699 Good luck, Kate

Hey there Vytas, good trip back? Yes it was wet wasn't it? We had to move from fino to brandy to keep warm brr! Don Chacon quite fun. Less interaction than previous years but El Zambo, Moraito, Diego del Morao, Deigo Carrasco all put in apprearances to make sure we stayed up till dawn. It warmed up at the end though and I had a lot of fun surfing the following week. Well if biting the seabed underneath a wave sounds like fun. Hmmm. Must mail Jake he was heading up to Seville. Still off pooter and being cautious about RSI. It feels alot better after a couple of weeks off but need to keep it gentle. See yous occasionally!

Hi Veet, Jesus is really great huh? And a great teacher too. Very open to people learning flamenco and he will do a juerga all night. I love his sound, and his energy live. If you see him in California, tell him Richard from DC said Happy Easter! Ricardo
