Tarantas in Carlos Saura's "Fla...

Hi,

Who plays the Tarantas at the very beginning of this great film? It is played over the opening credits. However, it is not listed at the end credits. It is a wonderful piece, I think. If anyone can tell who it is and perhaps how to find a recording of it, I would be very grateful.

regards,

conrad

RE: Tarantas in Carlos Saura's "... (in reply to Conrad)

According to the booklet that I have that camewith the film there's a listing for 'Prologue' right before Paquera's Buleria. I don't have access to the video right now, but assuming that that is what you mean, it's played by Isidro Muñoz and is called 'Boceto'. Isidro Muñoz was the musical director of the film and he is Manolo Sanlucar's brother.

I hope this helps.
Phil
