The
object of this anthology is to explain each type of flamenco song, as
well as the different variations that come from the different geographical
areas.
Each
one of the styles will be carefully explained so that singers, guitarists,
percussionists and even those that are just beginning, are able to understand
their structures, words, intonation, rhythms,
beats, forms, etc.
All
the songs are explained in parts, “step by step”, and at the
end of the explanation they will be interpreted in their complete form.
Furthermore,
making the most of the facilities of the DVD, you also have the possibility
of lowering the volume of Merenguito’s
voice so that the singers can practise with the group. There is also the
opportunity of reducing the sound of the guitar, so that the guitarists
can practise the accompaniment of the song with Merenguito.
In
other words, this is a perfect course both for singers and guitarists,
where you will be able to study and practise singing as well as accompanying
the song.
It also include a booklet with some historical information about all explained
flamenco styles, technical featuires and lyrics.
In
this first volume are explained the following
styles belonging to the geographical area of Andalusia, except for the
tangos of Extremadura which are closely linked to flamenco:
