I'm Oslo based, quite new to flameco world. I have some previous electric and classical guitars experience. Hope to learn more about this beautiful music. Cheers
So, tell us what brought you to Flamenco, the Cante, guitar, dance, all three! For me it was solo guitar but I like all three as I learn more and more.

I prefer my flamenco guitar spicy, doesn't have to be fast, should have some meat on the bones, can be raw or well done, as long as it doesn't sound like it's turning green on an elevator floor.
"Anything you do can be fixed. What you cannot fix is the perfection of a blank page. What you cannot fix is that pristine, unsullied whiteness of a screen or a page with nothing on it—because there’s nothing there to fix."
What brought me to flamenco is mostly guitar, don't know much about the dance yet. To make long story short, after playing electric guitar for quite many years i broke both wrists and stopped to play for about 15 years. Decided to start again partly to challenge myself, come back to a previous passion, but also explore and learn something completely new. After over a year of playing some random stuff, bossa and rumba I decided that probably I'm not to old to learn flamenco which i find extremely interesting. ON the other hand I have a very strong connection with Spain especially southern part. That's it;) Have a great day guys!
