cRobson12 -> RE: Typical Speeds for different palos? (Dec. 14 2010 12:40:51)

I am not sure about pefect tempo's for the others, but my teacher told me that HIS teacher told him that the perfect tempo for Farruca is 162bpm.

For Bulerias I use about 220bpm (Can vary depending what If feel like)
For Solea I use 100-125bpm
Alegrias I use 120-140bpm

I am not going to comment on the others because I don't think I know enough about them to comment

Farruca = 162bpm? That's one beat per eighth though, right? So cut it in half for 4/4. I don't think there's a "perfect speed" though unless you want all the other musicians and dancers to play and dance at the same perfect speed. A range is better.

Slow palos like soleares, siguiriyas, farruca, tientos etc. can get down to 60bpm, it's good to practice at that speed because you have more time to fill, it's easier to get lost in the compás and some falsetas won't work at that speed.

I do 60-100 for slow (solea, farruca), 100-160 for medium (tango, alegria, fandango, sevillana, solxbul, columbiana, guajira), 200-220 for bulerias.

Always having the metronome support you on every beat isn't always good, try cutting the beats in half once then twice, meaning try playing farruca with the metronome on 40 then on 20 and see if you can meet with the metronome every second and every fourth beat.

Also to practice keeping a stable beat you can start the metronome and pretend IT'S in contra with YOU playing the main beats. Confusing at first but once you get the hang of it it does a lot of good.
