Ricardo -> RE: Influence of guitar on cante (Apr. 23 2016 16:20:57)
|
We talked about this stuff in the past, look up minera Taranta and Rondeña. Just to point out, he accompanied many malagueñas and granainas por Taranta or Granaina which I always thought was odd. Los Chiquitos copied the original of Chacon and young Paco also plays in F# like Montoya. I think the recordings are what finally codified the art of accompaniment....that being the huge body of work done by Melchor and N. Ricardo served as the model that stands today. The Rondeña tuning is used finally more often in modern times, Montoya only recorded one cante for a female singer using that tuning, it was a Levantica, normally we use Taranta or Minera key for that as it is in the cante de las Minas family. I have to say as much as I like this guys presentation, that part at 15:27 I was anticipating with my dark humor side, very satisfying. (After demo of Rondeña he talks a long time about players up to Sabicas then tried to play Farruca forgetting to retune! [:D])
