quote:
Keeping twelves? For the cante, yes...when the singer started in the middle of the compas, the guitar maintained 12's feel and put the reverse cambio at 1,2,3 to keep it together, as was always done by modern players since N. Ricardo and Melchor. The reverse cambio was not done "by some early guitarists", Moraito just did it for Jesus Mendez first CD. He got it from his uncle (who ALWAYS did it) and others. Montoya did it too. Yes you can do it and not get dirty looks trust me. If you say it's 1904 fine, the clip was loaded by Aloysius and implication was that it was "old and primitive" toque, I assumed it was among the EARLIEST examples from that wax cylinder collection. I certainly hear it differently than you guys, sounds WELL established to me. Arcas I don't consider more "flamenco" just because he snagged a bit of cante melody for his Rondeña. Not based on what I was reading in those scores, sorry. Ricardo
