today i can get through a cante accompaniment lesson ive been working on for the first time. im still only doing it at the slow tempo, and its messy, but im really close to having it down
it feels like a big reward, even though im just playing along to a recorded voice, it feels like im jamming
ill work on it until i can do it well enough to make a video
RE: i just had a breakthrough (in reply to HeavyWood)
my advice would be to hang around the dance studio, make some friends there, and ask if you can sit in and watch/listen
i find i learn heaps that way
if you have some compas they might even let you help accompany. im not ready to do this yet, but ive sat down next to flo a few times and done simple palmas for the beginner dance students
i would try to recommend some free lessons online, but i dont know whats good and whats bad, im so new to flamenco. i hope you find ways to keep inspired, and keep learning for the time being
when you can afford it then you could sign up to a lesson site (or if your lucky find a private teacher)
