As guitarist, composer, dramatist, producer and artistic mentor he has transformed perceptions of this archetypal Spanish art form. Born in the Andalucian city of Córdoba, Paco Peña began learning the guitar from his brother at the age of six and made his first professional appearance at the age of twelve. In the late 1960she leftSpain for London, where his Photograph by Elvira Peña recitals of flamenco music captured the public imagination. Venues for his solo performances have included the intimate Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club and the monumental Royal Albert Hall in London, New York’s Carnegie Hall and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. He has shared the stage with fellow- guitarists, singers and instrumental groups, bridging diverse musical genres, including classical, jazz, blues, country and Latin American. Readers of America’s Guitar magazine judged Paco Peña as ‘Best Flamenco Guitarist of the Year’ for five consecutive years. In 1981 he founded the Centro Flamenco Paco Peña in Córdoba, later becoming Artistic Director of the Córdoba International Guitar Festival. Plans are underway for a new educational initiative in Peña’s hometown, complementing his work as the world’s first Professor of Flamenco Guitar, a role established in 1985 at Rotterdam Conservatory in the Netherlands. Paco Peña is based in London, but still spends a significant part of the year in his native Andalucía. In 1997 he was proud to be named Oficial de la Cruz de la Orden del Mérito Civil, an honour bestowed by King Juan Carlos of Spain.

On the contrary, the same searching spirit for creating solos is no less apparent in the striving of the guitarist to Looking back over the years since I gave my first concert at Wigmore Hall in 1967, accompany singers and dancers, all of which adds to flamenco as a living art form.

It is fitting that this beautiful recording is made at Wigmore Hall; given the It turned out well in the end, in no small measure due to the support and immense interest in the guitar in Britain during the 1960s and on, it was perhaps warmth I received from both the staff and audience at Wigmore Hall.

    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.

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.

    CANTES Y ARTISTAS FLAMENCOS DE JAÉN Faustino Núñez Musicólogo RESUMEN: El papel destacado de Jaén, y especialmente de Linares, en el nacimiento de los cantes mineros viene siendo en los últimos años, y a partir de los estudios más serios, situado en su justo lugar. La importancia de los cantes de Linares y otras comarcas mineras jienenses queda fuera de toda duda, concluyendo cómo a partir de los cantes linarenses se fueron desarrollando otros muchos estilos mineros. En una primera parte, el artículo realiza un repaso por los cantes oriundos de Jaén, centrándose en la taranta de Linares, cante por excelencia, al que seguirá la presentación de un glosario cronológico con los intérpretes (cante, toque y baile) más destacados, desde el siglo XIX hasta mediados del siglo XX. Esta nómina de cantes y artistas flamencos da cuenta del protagonismo ineludible de la provincia de Jaén en la historia del género. PALABRAS CLAVE: flamenco, Jaén, Linares, tarantas, artistas flamencos (cantaores, guitarristas y bailaores) jiennenses. ABSTRACT: The prominent role of Jaén, and especially of Linares, in the birth of the flamenco mining songs has been in recent years, and from the most serious studies, located in its right place. The importance of the songs of Linares and other mining regions of Jaén is beyond any doubt, concluding how many other mining styles were developed from the Linares songs. In the first part, the article reviews the songs from Jaén, focusing on the Linares taranta, the quintessential song. This will be followed by the presentation of a chronological glossary with the most prominent performers (singers, guitarists and dancers) from the 19th century to the mid-20th century.

Alameda Gitana (Rodrigo) - 3:24 ABOUT FLAMENCO An old Gypsy once told me that flamenco and bullfighting were the spice of Spain. I certainly agree with this because both accurately express the Spanish character, which has been popularized throughout the world. Flamenco, of course, brings to life the alegria (happiness), spontaneity, fiery temperament, and poetic awareness of human love and suffering that the Spanish people innately experience with pride. 1 Flamenco music is the music of Andalucia – the southern region of Spain. It must be also noted that even though flamenco has led as many influences as the Iberian Peninsula itself, its modes, feelings, and tonalities are very Arabic and oriental due to seven centuries of rule by the Moors. The birthplace of this art form are found in the provinces of Daciz, Sevilla, Granada, Malaga, Cordoba, Huelva, Almeria, Jaen and Murcia. It is an old music, which has developed slowly with an “art for art’s sake” attitude and reached a pinnacle of popularity in Spain around the turn of the century. Since then, along with consistent improvement, change and intense creativity, flamenco has become what it is today: A combination of dancing, singing, guitaristry, finger snappy, hand clapping and castanets.
