The soniquetes are the Standards or rhythmical variations used to accompany the sing; giving to the singer a strong rhythmical basis meanwhile he plays different thirds of the theme. The falsetas are the variations where the singer replies to the guitarist (to the pianist in this case) and where he plays a melody as a soloist before letting sing the singer. The total structure of each piece is the result of each one of the structures called variations. With the aim of a rhythmic understanding of everything in this DVD, on each exercise the following information has been put: - The “digitación” it is not the only one possible but it is the easiest, according to our experience. - The harmonica analysis: in each exercise, the different level of each tonality, as the corresponding harmonious.

Wise and J. Robbins, 1961), Los Tarantos (F. Rovira-Beleta, 1963) and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta (A. Paso, 1969) [1] Par Víctor Huertas-Martín Publication en ligne le 07 décembre 2020 Résumé This article examines the critical reception of the film adaptation of West Side Story (Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise, 1961) in Spanish culture and cinematography. It looks into two other screen versions of Romeo and Juliet: Los Tarantos (Francesc Rovira-Beleta, 1963) and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta (Alfonso Paso, 1969). West Side Story remains in the Spanish cultural memory as a filmic event associated with the arrival of foreign influence amidst national-catholic dictatorship. I will use the variables “place” and “space,” which distinguish, on one hand, proper orders established by authority and, on the other hand, areas transformable by interactions and changes, and will refer to Shakespeare’s presentist criticism, French cultural theory and French Film Theory as lenses. I will examine West Side Story’s 1963 Spanish reception material as well as its possible interactions with the webwork of cultural forces in operation amidst the 1960s Spanish culture. Then, I will examine the mise en scenes of Los Tarantos and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta focusing on the forms in which characters, places and camerawork contribute to create spaces, i.e. places permeable to change and transformation through human interaction.

  • Rhythmic Foundation and Accompaniment
    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.

Macarena Navarro Pablo Universidad de Sevilla Enviado: 16-01-2015 Aceptado: 25-01-2015 Resumen Partiendo del cine como recurso didáctico, en el presente artículo analizamos, ofrecemos datos y hacemos sugerencias para el uso en el aula de la película Los Tarantos , un filme ambientado en el Somorrostro de Barcelona de la década de los sesenta que tiene entre sus protagonistas a Carmen Amaya y a Antonio Gades. Palabras clave: Flamenco, baile, etnia gitana, Somorrostro, Carmen Amaya, Antonio Gades, Sara Lezana, Antonia la Singla. Abstract Using cinema as a methodological resource, the present paper analyzes Francisco Rovira Beleta’s film Los Tarantos , offers information about it and proposes activities to be done while and after watching it. The film located in the marginal district of Somorrostro in Barcelona has Carmen Amaya, Antonio Gades and Sara Lezana among its main characters. 101 © SERVICIO DE PUBLICACIONES DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE MURCIA http://revistas.um.es/flamenco 1. El cine, un recurso didáctico innovador Siempre se ha dicho que una imagen vale más que mil palabras. Y, ¿qué decir de una imagen que habla y se mueve?, que eso es ni más ni menos el cine. Recientemente, se han constituido grupos de investigación que tienen como fin explorar nuevos campos para la didáctica de diversas materias a distintos niveles educativos 1. Esas son nuestras inquietudes. En este sentido, estamos plenamente de acuerdo con Pereira Domínguez cuando dice: El cine, y más el de autor, es una traslación constatada de un considerable poder sociocultural, artístico y humano, porque es capaz de acoger la más impensable diversidad de sentimientos, deseos, acontecimientos y percepciones.

  • Columbia University Libraries Music Library Zarzuela Collection
    COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES MUSIC LIBRARY ZARZUELA COLLECTION [Shelvedoff-sST BlOTJ^ COU-tCTloh) -XS Shelvedoffeftf 1993 CONTENTS page DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION 1 LISTING OF CONTENTS IN BOXORDER 4 BIBLIOGRAPHIC TITLE SHEETS (duplicates are included in boxes and have been filmed with the materials) COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES MUSIC LIBRARY ZARZUELA COLLECTION DESCRIPTION The Zarzuela Collection at Columbia University consists of almost five hundred different zarzuelas. Both nineteenth and twentieth century works are represented by libretti, scores, and separate instrumental parts. Formats include printed, typewritten, and handwritten items. Many of the libretti contain role assignments and other handwritten notes which indicate they were used by a traveling zarzuela company. Among the authors of the libretti are Javer de Bergos y Sarragoiti, Jose Estremero y Cuenca, Jacinto Benavente, and the Quintero brothers. BACKGROUND The Zarzuela Collection was given to the Columbia Music Library by the Hispanic Institute in 1986. The Institute was founded in 1916 as the Instituto de las Espanas en los Estados Unidos by Frederico de Onis, the year he became head of the Spanish Department at Columbia University. In 1940 the Institute acquired its present name, and in 1961 it moved to the Columbia campus. Since there was no space in the new quarters for the collection, it was donated to the Music Library in two installments — the first included the music scores, the second the libretti and other texts. The source and original organization of the collection are difficult to determine, since the card catalog which accompanied it did not accurately reflect it. In an unpublished study, Janet L.

  • El Flamenco En Tiempos Del Cancionero De Eduardo Ocón
    El flamenco en tiempos del Cancionero de Eduardo Ocón. Estudio especial de la «Soledad» Flamenco at the time of Eduardo Ocón's «Cancionero». A study of «Soledad» Berlanga Femández, Miguel Ángel * BIBLID [021 0-962-X( 1995); 26; 321-335] RESUMEN Por los años en que Eduardo Ocón elaboraba sus Cantos Españoles ( década de 1860) los códigos estéticos del naciente arte flamenco se estaban decantando. Algunas de las piezas que Ocón recoge en su Cancionero son un precioso testimonio del punto en que se encontraba esta evolución. El autor del artículo acude a este Cancionero, a un testimonio literario de la misma época, la obra Viaje por España del francés Charles Davillier y a los datos del folklore actual para adentrarse en el flamenco de una época de la que se tienen abundantes referencias literarias pero escasos y poco estudiados testimonios musicales. Palabras clave: Ocón, Eduardo. Flamenco. Cante jondo. Música popular. Folklore. España. Siglo 19. ABSTRACT At the time when Eduardo Ocón was writing his Sp anish Songs (Cantos Españoles), that is in the 1860s, the relatively young art of flamenco was also developing its own aesthetic identity. Sorne of the pieces which Ocón includes in his «Cancionero» offer fine evidence of this development. The present paper is based on an analysis of the Cancionero, of a literary work of the same period, the Frenchman Charles Davillier's Travels through Sp ain and of data from current folklore, and is an attempt to study flamenco at a time when many literary references have been studied but there has been little analysis of purely musical evidence .

    Dossier de prensa ESTRELLA MORENTE Vocalist: Estrella Morente Lead Guitarist: José Carbonell "Montoyita" Second Guitarist: José Carbonell "Monty" Palmas and Back Up Vocals: Antonio Carbonell, Ángel Gabarre, Enrique Morente Carbonell "Kiki" Percussion: Pedro Gabarre "Popo" Song MADRID TEATROS DEL CANAL – SALA ROJA THURSDAY, JUNE 9TH AT 20:30 MORENTE EN CONCIERTO After her recent appearance at the Palau de la Música in Barcelona following the death of Enrique Morente, Estrella is reappearing in Madrid with a concert that is even more laden with sensitivity if that is possible. She knows she is the worthy heir to her father’s art so now it is no longer Estrella Morente in concert but Morente in Concert. Her voice, difficult to classify, has the gift of deifying any musical register she proposes. Although strongly influenced by her father’s art, Estrella likes to include her own things: fados, coplas, sevillanas, blues, jazz… ESTRELLA can’t be described described with words. Looking at her, listening to her and feeling her is the only way to experience her art in an intimate way. Her voice vibrates between the ethereal and the earthly like a presence that mutates between reality and the beyond. All those who have the chance to spend a while in her company will never forget it for they know they have been part of an inexplicable phenomenon. Tonight she offers us the best of her art. From the subtle simplicity of the festive songs of her childhood to the depths of a yearned-for love. The full panorama of feelings, the entire range of sensations and colours – all the experiences of the woman of today, as well as the woman of long ago, are found in Estrella’s voice.

  • Towards an Ethnomusicology of Contemporary Flamenco Guitar
    Rethinking Tradition: Towards an Ethnomusicology of Contemporary Flamenco Guitar NAME: Francisco Javier Bethencourt Llobet FULL TITLE AND SUBJECT Doctor of Philosophy. Doctorate in Music. OF DEGREE PROGRAMME: School of Arts and Cultures. SCHOOL: Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. Newcastle University. SUPERVISOR: Dr. Nanette De Jong / Dr. Ian Biddle WORD COUNT: 82.794 FIRST SUBMISSION (VIVA): March 2011 FINAL SUBMISSION (TWO HARD COPIES): November 2011 Abstract: This thesis consists of four chapters, an introduction and a conclusion. It asks the question as to how contemporary guitarists have negotiated the relationship between tradition and modernity. In particular, the thesis uses primary fieldwork materials to question some of the assumptions made in more ‘literary’ approaches to flamenco of so-called flamencología . In particular, the thesis critiques attitudes to so-called flamenco authenticity in that tradition by bringing the voices of contemporary guitarists to bear on questions of belonging, home, and displacement. The conclusion, drawing on the author’s own experiences of playing and teaching flamenco in the North East of England, examines some of the ways in which flamenco can generate new and lasting communities of affiliation to the flamenco tradition and aesthetic. Declaration: I hereby certify that the attached research paper is wholly my own work, and that all quotations from primary and secondary sources have been acknowledged.
