"En Vivo desde Morón de la Frontera"

Tangos, Soleares y Alegrías

In any Flamenco Fiesta it is the hand-clapping and cheering that is the basic of the performance or get-together
This is the most fun and at the same time the most difficult to perform
The Fiestas are often spontaneous and may be performed standing, sitting, whenever or wherever the moment dictates
These days not everyone kows how to mark time well when it comes to song or dance, it might be that in any get-together with a number of people that there are only one or two who know how to carry the rhythm and mark time correctly
Its extremely difficult to sing or dance without the aid of the guitar but it can also be much more entertaining for the performers
For example, the singers don't have the restriction of having to sing in the key dictated by the guitar, making it possible to enter in song one after the other, each in their own prefered key
However, as a many of the singers and dancers are accustomed to beging guided by the guitar, giving them cues to enter and cues out again, then this sort of performance without guitar becomes all the more difficult
Really the performers should not be guided by the guitar but by the rhythms
This is the main difference, in fact the most important factor that differentiates Flamenco from other musical genres
