You're going to upset John Walsh. [8D]

Don't get me wrong -- I love this stuff! I'm just trying to make fun of the purists. Maybe I should've added /s ...

Don't worry Ramzi, I'm not that easily upset. Anyway, José knows more about flamenco than any of us here ever will so I wouldn't worry about it [:D]

I've always thought the oboe was under utilized in flamenco. the voice is more flamenco than flute. Miles Davis' tone was very flamenco. IMHO.

For flamenco accompaniment, nothing beats a kazoo. Lacking a kazoo, the old comb and tissue paper will do just fine. Bill

this is beautiful! the trumpet isnt that rare in flamenco but i haven't seen that metal turtle shell drum thingy used that much.

quote: the trumpet isnt that rare in flamenco Really? I haven't seen it before. I thought it added a cool film noir vibe. I was waiting for Philip Marlowe to start a monologue. That turtle shell drum thingy is called a pantam, I think.

I was recently at a party with a bunch of young Cuban pro musicians. Their guitarist had my blanca, their drummer was handed a tambour and the violinist let rip on a plastic bottle and a pen knife - and man, he was awesome on that plastic bottle!! Nice film Chester - but the editing of their videos always bugs me. You know they're being awesome, but then it cuts and you don't get to a

quote: [El Tiriti:] the trumpet isnt that rare in flamenco [El chester:] Really? I haven't seen it before. It has spoiled (for me) a number of Vicente's pieces that were otherwise good. But as Estebanana suggests, it depends how it's played - Miles style is a better fit with flamenco than Chuck Mangione, which is what Vicente's guy makes me think of. (And yes, bring on the oboe - even better, oboe d'amore.) quote: I thought it added a cool film noir vibe. I was waiting for Philip Marlowe to start a monologue. He's old school. Muy flamenco, though. quote: That turtle shell drum thingy is called a pantam, I think. It's a Swiss invention called Hang. And I haven't seen/heard/imagined it in flamenco, though it is the kind of thing that you might encounter down the calle from the flamenco, in Granada for example, played by a white dude with dreads.

I was waiting for Philip Marlowe to start a monologue. That turtle shell drum thingy is called a pantam, I think. Vicente Amigo introduces trumpet (instead of the already decade and half old soprano sax/flute stuff of Pardo) in about 1996. It was certainly meant to evoke the "jazzy" vibe many flamenco aficionados love to hate. Ricardo

quote: instead of the already decade and half old soprano sax/flute stuff of Pardo We could go back much further even if we include the likes of Fernando Vilches. But those guys didn't really play in a jazz vibe. Seems like they were mainly just trying to copy cante and not to add an additional layer of music.

If we are having trumpet players let them be dressed properly. Rob Images are resized automatically to a maximum width of 800px

I'm definitely more into traditional flamenco, not into weird instruments (violin, saxophone, even cajón feels a bit too fusioney to me...) yet I heard this, a soleá w/ a "marimba" and I have to admit it SOUNDS very flamenco... "It's how you play it" I guess... https://youtu.be/Xz8r47I-nVw

Sadly, that's what many Americans think it's a typical flamenco outfit [8\|] [:D] So true. I'm not a purist in any art form. But it does irritate me that of my fellow Americans don't know the difference between mariachi and flamenco. Or flamenco and flamingo!!!
