But I sense that you understand what I mean, and dispute it Sounds about right. At least I think I know what you're saying. ^^ I just tend to think it's much more of a spectrum than some people would like to think, much less of a binary. My personal view of how things evolved doesn't stretch all that far back. All I can say is that in the what? 10-15 years maybe? I've been in this environment, I haven't noticed any particular changes in that regard. I'll also say that it's happened to me more than once that, when I'd ask a teacher here to teach me a "classic" flamenco piece, their eyes would just light up. Like "finally someone who wants to learn something interesting". So, dunno, my personal experience is that flamenco guitarists (generalising of course) put very high value on certain set pieces, as they are. But I dunno. Tomato tomato. ^^ If it's about the prevalence of what shows up on Youtube, I wouldn't really know what to say. Maybe there is something to be said about the algorithm, but I'd imagine in Samuelito's case it's simply because he wants to protect his own work and doesn't put it up there in the first place. Like if you go on Yago Santos's page, he has a few full recordings, then a bunch of small 1-minute snippets for marketing purposes, but on the whole he's keeping his stuff off of Youtube. I just posted one of his here where he goes through one falseta. He'd done that in the past too, and he left it up for a while (don't remember, maybe a month or so) and then took it down. So dunno. That's what I was trying to say when I said "if his albums aren't up on youtube it's just because the guy has to make a living...". I'm not a pro so I honestly have no opinion on what's the best way for them to go about this, but I can certainly understand the rationale of wanting to keep most of your album material off of Youtube so that people will actually buy your album. Yeah I loved that little reference around 2:30. Plus that impish face like "see what I just did there....aaaww c'mon you know what I'm doing, and you know it's cool" [:D] Dunno about any compendium showing the evolution of falsetas. There's a few heads I'd like to dissect where they have pretty big chunks of that knowledge. But medical ethics blablabla. [8D]
