marduk -> question - theory and flamenco (Feb. 6 2010 16:34:48)

hello everyone, i have noticed that there are some people here who play flamenco guitar, but also know music theory. it makes sense, because im sure a lot of the players here have backgrounds in other music i love music theory, and always have preferred to read it over novels and such, so i know a little bit about it, and have always used it to drive y creativity and help my understanding of music since i started learning about flamenco guitar, i have not worried so much with theory, I just watch and listen very carefully in lessons, and ask lots of questions, then i spend a lot of time listening to flamenco music and trying to hear the dynamics, im listening for where contra is used, being very aware of what is happening i wanted to ask if the pro's here would recommend me also taking a theory approach when im at home. im not sure if it is something that i should be doing for example, if i harmonise modo dorico with A as the root note, would the scale tone chords be the cocrrect choices for a bulerias in A? or did the early flamenco players take different approaches than what i would be used to i hope that question made sensse, i find it difficult to be clear and concise when i am typing instead of talking
