RE: Cante flamenco (in reply to johnnefastis)

quote:
ORIGINAL: johnnefastis Awesome! does anyone know why Borrico starts singing before the Juan finishes the variations/remates? He doesn’t. The first letra ends and he allows the falseta to close with the remate E arp, then the marked descending chords 1,2,3, are the signal to start singing if he wants or not. After the two lines of verse, Juan wrongly anticipates a respiro that didn’t happen to be in Borricos head, he simply connects the the 3rd line of verse in the next compas as normal. The respiro that often happens is NOT a requirement of cante, and must be done with caution. AS you can see Juan has to continue the variation that he started, UNDER the third sung line, forcing Juan to deliver the cambio chords (G7-C) super late (on the 1,2,3 of the 4th cycle). Nothing in what I wrote above is to be considered a “mistake” of any kind in context here. Only in dance world of set choreography and set letras would the above be considered “incorrect” and a forced repeat of the entire letra in order for the musicians to get on task. This sort of thing has forced an evolution to occur where these moments are suddenly jarring to folks used to square box cante and respiros, perfect count 10 remates, etc. This forced evolution via dance accompaniments (the working environment honestly), has robbed the cante/guitar of such freedoms of expression as shown here (ironically the second letra is totally cuadrao despite the missing respiro).
