    Introduction To Flamenco: Rhythmic Foundation and Accompaniment by "Flamenco Chuck" Keyser P.O. Box 1292 Santa Barbara, CA 93102 [email protected] http://users.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/flamenco.html © Charles H. Keyser, Jr. 1993 (Painting by Rowan Hughes) Flamenco Philosophy IA My own view of Flamenco is that it is an artistic expression of an intense awareness of the existential human condition. It is an effort to come to terms with the concept that we are all "strangers and afraid, in a world we never made"; that there is probably no higher being, and that even if there is he/she (or it) is irrelevant to the human condition in the final analysis. The truth in Flamenco is that life must be lived and death must be faced on an individual basis; that it is the fundamental responsibility of each man and woman to come to terms with their own alienation with courage, dignity and humor, and to support others in their efforts. It is an excruciatingly honest art form. For flamencos it is this ever-present consciousness of death that gives life itself its meaning; not only as in the tragedy of a child's death from hunger in a far-off land or a senseless drive-by shooting in a big city, but even more fundamentally in death as a consequence of life itself, and the value that must be placed on life at each moment and on each human being at each point in their journey through it. And it is the intensity of this awareness that gave the Gypsy artists their power of expression.

  • Many of Us Are Familiar with Popular Major Chord Progressions Like I–IV–V–I
    Many of us are familiar with popular major chord progressions like I–IV–V–I. Now it’s time to delve into the exciting world of minor chords. Minor scales give flavor and emotion to a song, adding a level of musical depth that can make a mediocre song moving and distinct from others. Because so many of our favorite songs are in major keys, those that are in minor keys1 can stand out, and some musical styles like rock or ​ ​ jazz thrive on complex minor scales and harmonic wizardry. Minor chord progressions generally contain richer harmonic possibilities than the typical major progressions. Minor key songs frequently modulate to major and back to minor. Sometimes the same chord can appear as major and minor in the very same song! But this heady harmonic mix is nothing to be afraid of. By the end of this article, you’ll not only understand how minor chords are made, but you’ll know some common minor chord progressions, how to write them, and how to use them in your own music. With enough listening practice, you’ll be able to recognize minor chord progressions in songs almost instantly! Table of Contents: 1. A Tale of Two Tonalities 2. Major or Minor? 3.

  • Flamenco Music Theory Pdf
    Flamenco music theory pdf Continue WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:1) Andalusian Cadence is a series of chords that gives flamenco music its characteristic sound: In Music, a sequence of notes or chords consisting of the closing of the musical phrase: the final cadences of the Prelude.3) This progression of chords consists of i, VII, VI and V chords of any insignificant scale, Ending on V chord.4) The most commonly used scale for this chord progression is the Harmonic minor scale (in C minor: B C D E F G))5) The most common keys in flamenco are the Frigian, known as Por Medio in flamenco guitar, and consisting of Dm, C, Bb. Another common key is E Phrygian, known as Por Arriba on Flamenco guitar, and consisting of Am, G, F, E. E Phrygian (Por Arriba) is often used in Solea and Fandangos Del Huelva.THE ANDALUSIAN CADENCE: Today we will discuss really common chords and sound in flamenco: Andalus Cadens! Learning more about this sound will help the audience better appreciate flamenco music, provide flamenco dancers with a better understanding of the music that accompanies them, and non-flamenco musicians some basic theory to incorporate flamenco sounds into their music. At this point, if you want to skip the theory and just listen, go to LISTENING: ANDALUSIAN CADENCE IN THE WORLD. I would recommend reading the pieces of the theory just for some context. MUSIC THEORY: CHORD PROGRESSIONThic series of four chords is so ubiquitous in flamenco that anyone who listens to it should know it when they hear it.

Contact: [email protected] Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 11, no. 2, pp. 29-77 (2016) Flamenco Jazz: An Analytical Study Peter Manuel Since the 1990s, the hybrid genre of flamenco jazz has emerged as a dynamic and original entity in the realm of jazz, Spanish music, and the world music scene as a whole. Building on inherent compatibilities between jazz and flamenco, a generation of versatile Spanish musicians has synthesized the two genres in a wide variety of forms, creating in the process a coherent new idiom that can be regarded as a sort of mainstream flamenco jazz style. A few of these performers, such as pianist Chano Domínguez and wind player Jorge Pardo, have achieved international acclaim and become luminaries on the Euro-jazz scene. Indeed, flamenco jazz has become something of a minor bandwagon in some circles, with that label often being adopted, with or without rigor, as a commercial rubric to promote various sorts of productions (while conversely, some of the genre’s top performers are indifferent to the label 1). Meanwhile, however, as increasing numbers of gifted performers enter the field and cultivate genuine and substantial syntheses of flamenco and jazz, the new genre has come to merit scholarly attention for its inherent vitality, richness, and significance in the broader jazz world.

Box 1292 Santa Barbara, CA 93102 [email protected] http://members.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/flamenco.html © Charles H. Keyser 1998 (painting by Rowan Hughes) Introduction To Flamenco Contents Introduction Basic Rhythm Basic Chords Basic Rasgueados 2/4, 4/4 Compas Family 6/8, 3/4 Compas Family Barred Chords Introduction Flamenco Guitar Position The traditional flamenco guitar is balanced on the right thigh; with the neck extending diagonally across the body upwards from right to left. (from the player’s point of view. The body of the guitar is held in place by the pressure of the upper right arm, and the right forearm extends downward to the guitar strings. This is a difficult position to master, and is used most often in accompaniment of a singer or dancer, since it lends itself to active participation in the surrounding flamenco environment. It is difficult at first; the hand position will probably be cramped, the guitar will tend to slip, and it is difficult to see the strings (when accompanying, flamenco guitarists rely on their guitar experience, and play without looking; they “internalize” the basic techniques necessary). An alternative is to with the right leg crossed over the left (or vice versa), a more comfortable position, and one used by a great many guitarists today (including Paco de Lucia). However, the traditional position is far better suited for driving rasgueado and basic thumb technique. The fancy fingerwork up the neck isn’t nearly as important in flamenco as the social participation, keeping solid rhythm, and feeling the music, and the traditional position is more effective for these priorities.

Fusions between urban music such as rock, pop and indie, and the folk music typical from the south of Spain: flamenco. For these purposes, two of the most important albums of this trend have been analysed, La leyenda del tiempo by the flamenco singer José Monge, also known as “Camarón” and La leyenda del espacio by the Spanish indie band from the city of Granada Los Planetas: origin and evolution of formal, aesthetic, social and commercial parameters of these albums. Keywords: rock gitano (Gypsy rock); rock andaluz (Andalusian rock); indie. he sub-genres rock gitano and rock andaluz first appeared in Andalusia (Spain) during the 1960s and 1970s. Both are the result from the hybridisation of rock and the most popular music of T Spain’s southern region: flamenco.

    Music Theory For Flamenco by “Flamenco Chuck” Keyser E-Mail: [email protected] http://members.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/flamenco.html Copyright © “Flamenco Chuck” Keyser, 1998 Contents Basic Theory Modes and Scales The Circle of Fifths Basic Chord Theory Keys Used for the Flamenco Guitar Keys associated with Flamenco Palos “Question and Answer” in Flamenco Harmony Major, Minor, and Phrygian Mode Keys Used for Flamenco Basic Phrygian Mode Chord Substitutions Secondary Dominants (Phrygian Mode) Secondary Dominants (Major and Minor Keys) Secondary Dominant Scales Accidentals and Complex Chords Diminished (7th) Chords in Flamenco Modulation Artistic Preferences Basic Theory The following is a brief introduction to music theory relevant to Flamenco. Flamenco music is organized according to interval relationships from the chromatic scale, which consists of all the notes possible for the guitar; the fundamental interval is the half step, which is the pitch distance (“high” or “low”) from one fret to another immediately above it on the guitar fingerboard. Another fundamental interval is the octave; this interval is the pitch distance obtained by dividing the length of the string(stopped at the nut and the bridge of the guitar) in half; on the 12th fret of the guitar, where the body of the guitar meets the neck on the traditional instrument (i.e., not cutaway). Relationships between notes of different octaves starting from the same note are the same, except higher or lower in pitch. In particular, corresponding notes and chords within each of these octaves will have the same names. The guitar is normally tuned to a pitch of A=440 cps; the 5th fret of the open E string.
