I used to have a Solea that the middle half of was pretty much libre. Basically it wasn't in compas. It wasn't intended to be that way. I asked a few people and they basically said to "call it what you want... it sounds like a solea." Paco Fernandez heard me play it in a concert one night at the New World Flamenco Festival and complemented me on it and he referred to it as a solea. That put it to rest for me. I broke rules yet it was considered by many people I respect to be a solea. Of course there are some who might say otherwise. Very interesting! I always used a set of my own falsetas for introducing solea, that were not in compas, but they speak like solea. When i was in spain (ive been there once) i played a little for a flamenco guitarist, and he asked me to teach him these few lines, and even though he had not heard a normal compas yet, he named it "great solea falseta". I promise to upload it soon. [:)]
