Ricardo -> Indio Gitano and Tomatito 1995 (Dec. 9 2019 22:02:59)

Here is a short recital I hadn’t seen before. I love his album with Gerardo Nuñez and he sings some of the same letras here with Tomatito. He is also called “El Moro” and sings on Tauromagia under that name.

For Devilhand- At 9.25 you can see El Indio Gitano coming in earlier than Tomatito expects. Tomatito finishes a falseta and starts a llamada but El Indio takes the end of the falseta as his cue and has already come in. Tomatio immediately adjusts into accompanying the cante.

I enjoy the raw power aire (and the sartorial expression) here:

Thanks orsonw. At 9:25, Tomatito was like oh ****. It looks as if Tomatito were disturbed right after he starts peeing.

Hard to believe he's from Extremadura and not Jerez [:)] Possibly my favourite cantaor.
There's also some material of him in the Extremadura episode of rito y geografia del cante, that I found interesting.

To be fair to El Indio Gitano; Tomatito completes a 2 compas falseta (start 9.08), and then Tomaito's next compas (start 9.19) does sound like he is resolving and inviting the cante.

To be fair to Tomatito he has got his eyes closed and looking up so his body language is not inviting cante.

At 9.55 you can see they make sure to confirm what's happening next with eye contact/body language.

Or Indio didn’t feel like waiting and Tomatito is like “come on old man” [:D]

Solea starts at 6:05. The part from 6:05 to 6:28 (intro?) sounds like it's free from 12 beat compas. Am I right?
Even from 6:28 onwards Tomatito plays with no compas except for the last 3 beats 10 11 12, which can be heard easily. What's happening there?

Thank you. I thought so too. [8D]

Sorry about that. Not sure what I did there. I was saying that for the first ten seconds or so he's just tuning, and then it's in compas but not cuadrado. Something like that.

I can't believe you didn't pick up on all that with the "." though. Ah, men! [:D]

Basically he is not playing metronomic always...it’s called “elastic” tempo, or rubato. He is always giving accents when singing is going on, even if subtle. Please read through this... I’m sorry it’s confusing with the deleted posts but you can get the gist.

sounds fine to me from the golpe at 6:16, and from 6:22 it's damn near metronomic, with just some very slight speeding up and slowing down with the accents (accelerating approaching accents, then hanging on them slightly etc.). Completely normal in Soleá. Listen to another 1,000 hours and come back to this and listen again![:D]

Yep, up to 6:16-6:17 he is just checking his tuning. From there on I'd say the compas is very strong, even though in a couple of places the passage of time gets stretched and compressed.

I was thinking, so why is this not 'out of compas'? And I think some part of the answer is, because Tomatito is able to communicate clearly the stretching and compressing of time, so there is no contradiction between a listener's sense of time and his sense of time. Instead, you go for a ride and feel the turns and twists without losing the compas.

He is able to do this via the accents and the familiarity of the phrasing within a compas and overall. His accents and phrasing stay exactly right in the modified flow of time; the compas structure is preserved.
