quote:
I played with one singer from granada who didnt want to rehearse until one hour before the gig At least he wanted to rehearse at all. But sonikete, I get your point, and you are right, people should know their job if they descrbe themselves as a "guitarist singer or dancer". But I feel you mean more that these folks need to deliver as pros. I think "flamenco guitarist" does not have to be professional. A maestro of accompanying singers only, would have a hard time accomp. baile, depending on who it is. Certainly would not want to rehearse and memorize choreography and such. You call him, he comes, and can't really do the best job. But that does not mean he is not a "flamenco guitarist". Perhaps the concert promotor wants a few guitar solos before the main show starts, but he has no repertoire, only accompanies singers, again, maybe they hired the "wrong" flamenco guitarist. I think that is more Florian's point. And his point carries over to singing and dance. "We need a singer for the show next week so I got.....". You don't really know how good it is until you either rehearse, juerga, or get on stage. And then it is already too late. Ricardo
