Merle, Simon, OK you twisted my arm. Actually I was about to volunteer anyway. I have been putting some thought into why the participation was low on the Tangos project. No definitive answers, but it may be a couple of things. First off Tangos may not be a rhythm a lot of us play. I think it may have been playing to a backing track that dissuaded some folks. In my case, I had not played to a backing track before and found it to be rewarding, but challenging. I also have been putting a lot of thought into what we should play. I was leaning toward Alegria, Solea and Sevillanias. Let’s face it, I don't know of many students that don't start with Solea. Besides Solea can be played in so many ways, from old style to Vincente. So here we go boys and girls. Solea it will be, but this time we are going to do it a bit different. We will not be playing to a backing track, but if you want to (as Florian I am sure will), you are more then happy (and encouraged) to do so. I also have no intention of doing complicated editing as Florian did. What I will do is collect the falsetas and blend them together the best I can. I will do all the EQing and final editing. So Simon, if you want to start a new thread introducing the new group project I would appreciate it. I will add to the thread as to what beat we will play at, file format and my email. Pat
