thiagofilardi -> Flamenco Classes (Sep. 22 2014 4:26:57)

Hi everyone,

Next year I'm planning to go to Madrid to learn Flamenco Guitar. Which is the best school? I've found some in the internet, but don't know if they are good, like the El Entri, AEGF, Fernando Mejías, Agustín Carbonell "Bola", Oscar Herrero, Tomatito, etc.

Do you know any of them? If better so, also the prices? On the AEGF site there are a lot of informations and the price is very high. The teachers of the regular courses there are José Deluna and David Durán. Are those names familiar to anyone?

I'd be very thaknful if you could share some information with me. I'm really willing to learn flamenco guitar and to invest some money on it and don't want to lose my time and savings.

Thanks!

Why not maybe go to a cheaper city with lots of "not as famous" flamencos. At a beginner level they can teach you just as much as tomatito. Then you can stay longer which will really teach you more. One month in Madrid with Tomatito will never teach you as much as 6 months in Lebrija with someone from the Bacan family and it'll prolly cost about the same.

Thanks for answering, Leñador!

I thought about Madrid because it's where most of the flamenco players are as I heard, but Lebrija seems nice as well.
So how can I have classes with this Bacan family? Do they have a school or something? In Madrid you'd recommend Tomatito?


Best,
Thiago.

Anyone else can help or shine a light with suggestions, recommendations or experiences to share?


Thanks,
Thiago.

El Viejin also gives lessons. Take the subway to the Oporto stop. Walk down to Caño Roto (walk noth from stop) and ask any Gitano where he lives. They will gladly show you the way. Viejo’s cousin David Cerreduela also gives classes, he also lives in Caño Roto about a block or two away from Viejin. Suerte



tele -> RE: Flamenco Classes (Sep. 23 2014 18:27:06)

if you can choose, why not go to cadiz area(cadiz/jerez/sevilla), you can study there with great guitarists and living there must be cheaper than madrid.



HolyEvil -> RE: Flamenco Classes (Sep. 24 2014 10:08:08)

what's the difference between El Veijin and El Entri?
Are they part of the same school? teaching wise? Is 1 the teacher of the other?

Entri

Yes. Pretty much, he is the maestro. Viejin and Enrique jimenez are his nephews Cerreduela might be related, but Jesus del Rosario is Entri's SON. [;)]

Do you know whether el entri has any albums or videos out that I can look for?

I like El viejin and Jesus de Rosario, so their sensei must be awesome.



thiagofilardi -> RE: Flamenco Classes (Sep. 30 2014 2:12:19)

But do you know anyone who can teach me there? Or any school?



thiagofilardi -> RE: Flamenco Classes (Sep. 30 2014 2:19:18)

Thank you all for the reply. The El Entri school seemed the most interesting by now, but apparently, as I searched for, the only way to contact him is calling him. hehe.

Does anyone know anything about AEGF? It seemed the most complete and qualified school, although a bit expensive.

Here is the website: http://www.aegf.es/



mt1007 -> RE: Flamenco Classes (Sep. 30 2014 17:18:24)

Just to clarify... Viejin is not a nephew of El Entri nor did he study with him. Ramon Jimenez is El Entri's brother and did study with him. David Cerreduela is Viejin's cousin. Jesus del Rosaria is El Entri's son and Ramon Jimenez's nephew. I spent some time studying with Viejo and Ramon and thought they were releated, etc... They seem related, studied together etc... both cleared things up for me.... confusing though, on who's related, studied with in Caño Roto.
