ORIGINAL: Morante
When I first arrived in Cádiz, I accompanied a cantaor por Alegrías, playing as in the video.
He said "Muy bien, tienes compás y los tonos son correctos. Pero lo que ha tocado no es Alegrías."
It took me a while to understand that what was missing was "soniquete¨. Something that you will not learn, practising in your bedroom.[:@]
In Turkey I met a guy named Pico de Triana and accompanied him por bulerias. He said something similar that I am missing the “soniquete de Triana”. I asked him which accompanist had this elusive rhythmic expression whom I could listen to and study the toque. He replayed “no hay Nadie ni ninguna grabacion!!! Solo un tocaor en mi bodega en Triana!” … never the less it bothered me for years, until I lent my guitar to a tocaor from Triana playing for Maria Pages in Kennedy Center. I asked him about Pico and he knew him, and laughed when I asked about the “soniquete”. He said it was nothing, just play a bit slower that is all. [:D][:D]
