tk -> Tabs for Paco Pena Zorongo (Apr. 11 2012 23:41:40)



Is there anyone who can put this on tabs? This is a great piece and unfortunately, does not exist on tabs. I asked Alain Faucher, he said he doesn't have it. I have no clue how easy or difficult is to transcribe music on tabs or notes.....I also don’t have the software or the technology to do it.

Thanks,

TK

you have your ear , it always work. at least in some degree , depending on you experience of course , but even an inexperienced player can pick at least a bit by ear

by the way , i am listening to the piece atm , i can tell you already by the first 5 secounds it's not standard tuning ofc.
i think it's rodeña - the bass E string is tuned down to D for sure



Paul Magnussen -> RE: Tabs for Paco Pena Zorongo (Apr. 12 2012 15:41:13)

It is indeed in Rondeña tuning.

Are you guys sure? I tried a little and thought it was regular tuning.

i can definitely hear the D on the bass so it's some sort of a drop D tuning
and with paco peña being paco peña i'm pretty sure it's rodeña

I think due to the recording or whatever reason, all the strings are dropped significantly lower than their regular sound. Try the higher E and you will see what I am saying.

"In fact the rondeña is a taranta, transposed one fifth higher. This tonality is built on C mechanics at the 2nd position, where the fundamental chord position is not quite natural. However the guitarist moves here within a very comfortable environment that provides magnificent sounds with surprisingly economical movements. One can arpegiate full chords, including up to five open strings, and develop on this base a complete melody over a big part of the fingerboard without having to perform any bar. Montoya’s original composition continues, without a doubt, to be the reference for the rondeña style. This piece has turned out to be a symbol for every flamenco guitarist, from any period. We find again Manuel Cano and Serranito among the first explorers of this tuning, a part of the proper toque por rondeña, with their arrangements for Andalucian popular themes. Whether in duet or in solo, they left noteworthy pieces such as Zorongo, Romance del Pastor, and Las Tres Morillas."

Yes I’m sure. The 2nd guitar part on the record may be in standard tuning, but the 1st guitar’s rondeña tuning.

Paul, I am not clear on the "2nd guitar part" vs. "1st guitar". I am referring to the youtube playing attached above not the original record in the tape.

For me this Zorongo is played all in D tonality and "Rondena" tuning.

Ciao
