Title: Flamenco Guitar, Compás Essentials: Alegrías

Author: Samuel Moore

ISBN: 978-1-7395140-1-3

Description: While most flamenco guitar students have a good working knowledge of technique and are confident when playing pre-composed material, if asked to perform in a more traditional manner, where spontaneous elements are required, many struggle.

The ‘Flamenco Guitar Compás Essentials’ book series seeks to address this. Central to its philosophy is the notion that mastering simple compás (rhythm) ideas (in the context of different palos) and learning how to integrate them with other performance components (such as falsetas and llamadas) is the key to unlocking flamenco’s spontaneous performance elements at a basic level.

‘Compás Essentials: Alegrías’ is the second book in the ‘Flamenco Guitar Compás Essentials’ series. It focuses exclusively on the palo alegrías. To this end, the book has been divided into six chapters.

Chapter One: Alegrías - An Overview
Chapter Two: Alegrías' Basic Compás
Chapter Three: Compás Variations
Chapter Four: Spontaneous Compás Playing
Chapter Five: Falsetas & Llamadas
Chapter Six: Bringing Everything Together

By the end of the book you’ll have mastered many of Alegrías' most important spontaneous performance elements, learnt how to integrate them into your playing and ultimately taken your knowledge of flamenco to the next level! 

Sixteen exclusive reference videos have been recorded to assist in your studies when working with this book.
