Intermediate Challenge Start: August 10 End: October 26, 11 pm UK time. Falsetta: Chicuelo from beginning to 51 seconds. Then Pepe from 3:26 until the end. You can hear it HERE Capo 3 The tabs and audio are available through Deniz. Thanks Deniz! Please, ask Deniz for the files only if you're really considering to participate. Stu has also posted a combined tablature of the piece. You can get it HERE Compas loops: http://www.foroflamenco.com/tm.asp?m=116383&appid=0&p=&mpage=1&key=&tmode=&smode=&s=#116386 PRIZE: Two 1hour lessons via skype with Todd! Thanks Todd! Contestants: at_leo deniz aleksi gabrielcito mrmagenta peghead48 tgerman chapman_g beno gshaviv polishcomedy jenny Judges: Todd xirdneH_imiJ GJ Michelob Duende Florian Matic Ron Deteresa1 Doitsujin Jason Ricardo Judging Method: Once the deadline for entry submission has passed, Ailsa will post all the attempts up for review. All judges will send their scores and comments to Ailsa, instead of posting them directly on to the thread. Each contestant will also send their scores to Ailsa by email. The contestant will not judge himself for obvious reasons. A 75/25 relation will be implemented. That means the judges' results will be multiplied by 3, before adding them to the challengers votes. In the end, we count both scores together and divide by two. Ailsa will then post all the scores and comment once the deadline for judging has passed or until she has received all judge's and challenger's scores. ***Please email your attempts to Ailsa. flamencoguitarcourse@yahoo.co.uk This is important: Be sure to include your user name so she knows who you are and also your code name. I've gotten so many people sending me files without saying a darn thing. Very irritating. Thanks Ailsa! ***Codename: Please pick a type of wood for your code name. ***Recording Rules: -everything must be done in one take. no punching in/editing. -reverb, eq, stuff like that is okay. -you must use a compas loop.

Hola amigos, intermediate challenge sounds great, you can count me in. solea por buleria is fine by me, I dont have the ones Deniz suggested but if they are good then suits me. the tangos with special tuning is a great tune I agree, but for me its not so tempting, but from tomatitos enquentro some solbul or the 3th alegria falseta could be nice for examble. That looks like good thump exercise and it sounds cool also. In the moment Im not avare of the other challange, but when ever we would like to start its fine by me. One month of practising is also good, I can do my best and see how much of the falseta I can manage and how, but I like good challanges. If we can get some judges that will be great. We have had many challanges now so hopefully somebody still have some power for judging. Anyway it will be nice to collectively do some falseta and after see the outcomes, its nice. It will be a fun project from beginning to the end. ps. Im jamming and learning some alegria on C and if you know some tunes in that key, I would appreciate if you could share them with me so I could get some ideas how to do it. Mostly what I have they are in E and from C I dont have any. and thanks for everybody for this exelent and lively forum. I havent been able to write here for awhile, but Ive enjoyed listening the advanced challege and the uploads and reading some conversations. Ole! to everybody making this happen. adios amigos

Well either he is "in" and competes for the prize as any challenger or he is out of the challenge and can share any mp3 at any time, like any other member can post anything anytime too. I am open to everything, you decide, yet i have to mention that these challenges were set up with the rule that the winner has to move to the next level. As i said, any member of this page can decide to share his mp3s at any time he wants to. Regarding judgement method, i didnt mean poll, i meant we could try out challengers judging themselves, as additional judgement to the regular judges. Everyone judges all challengers like a normal judge would do, exept your one mp3. I dont see why this shouldnt work, or any negative thing about it. To prevent any complications, challengers judge first by sending a mail to Ailsa (within 1 or 2 days), and then the official judges can make comments (because their points can be seen by the challengers...). The challenger's emails are kept secret until the end. Count them out, add them to the other judgments and divide it by two. Hehe, that would add alot of excitement too, because you dont know who wins until the end! Regarding falseta, I have the Encuentro material from Pepe H and Chicuelo with their Solea por Buleriasses, so i could provice tab+video+mp3. I find Tomatitos SolpB harder than intermediate i must say.
