What's a good tempo to play this piece? It's more spaced out than other bulerias in a few places, which makes it seem slower than a different bulerias at the same tempo, hence the question.
It's a breath of fresh air from the other bulerias that I usually play, and literally too, there's more "air" between the notes. lol.
Mario Esudero's original recording is very fast, around 292bpm. Paco's recording is a bit slower, closer to 280bpm. Both recordings have tempos that vary quite a bit, speeding up as the music heads towards big remates etc. - definitely before the click track era!
