im trying to track down a falseta that is used in the theme tune of zorro, i have the first part of the tab (i can't read music) but can't figure out the rest,
it starts..
E 0--1--3--1--0 B--------------------0--1--3--1--0--- de de de de, de de de derrrrr
Are you talking about the original Cinema cliffhanger series or the Antonio Banderas movies? Funnily enough, I was watching "the Legend of Zorro" only the other day. That stuff is basically all Malagueña. Loads of Rasgueo on a chord of E, then slide the chord up a fret, (with a rose in your teeth), then back to E and stamp your boot heel....Olé!
OMG..... I nearely fall asleep while watching the first 20 seconds... (u_u)ZZzzzz..... These old movies are so damn boring... damn. I think I saw them all together with my father when I was younger. I think thats the reason while he allways fall asleep in the couch... And I allways thought... hes a hard working old man. But now... eeh.. And I planned to work today.... I need a coffee ...or 3. Or a caffeine-infusion..
HEHEHE i love those soundeffects...sometimes when i am bored (if theres too much theory talking) in class to entertain myself i do the "Zorro" soundeffects to everything the teacher is saying without her noticing it until later....always works as i always entertain mself...lol
if she says something dramatic I do TAGARARAMMMM0--1--3--1--0Trammm etc...
if she says something deep i create the tenshion starting with soft continous rasqueado that goes loud and soft in and out lol
Dont forghet the castanets in the background for the effects otherwise it dosent feel complete ....and everything is extremly straight...and loud ...
basically u could play anything in the malaguena key and its a zorro theme...if not this one another one lol any other one
to think some guys get paid a fortune to do those for the movies
