RE: tremolo question (in reply to Jon Boyes)

Hola I play tremolo falsetas in Malagueñas and Granainas. During the cante accompaniment never, in any palo. I have also heard tremolo falsetas in solea and alegrias, but really just as a reverse arpeggio substitute. Sadly,I can raise no interest in solo guitar. Sean

Hi I always thought that tremolo was a way for the guitarist to make up for the short sustain of the notes, i.e the guitar stringwhen plucked sounds loud and then fades away so the poor guitarist thought how can I make it sustain better? And lo and behold tremolo was born LOL In Paco De Lucias solea (for solo guitar I might add) his tremolo resembles cante in the way it moves, ie instead of staying on one not for the tremolo i,a,m,i etc....the notes change and hence trying to recreate, I emphasize trying, the cante. Even in classical guitar we are always trying to imitate the best instrument that was born, and that is the voice, that is where all music sprung from, and instruments came later...as in flamenco guitar solos came later, and hence are trying to imitate the singer, the dancer and whatever else
