Lemon with Cinnamon | Viernes con una Letra

More jazmín. We just got home from the Peña de los Cernícalos here in Jerez where we went to hear Antonio Agujetas and Domingo Rubichi.

He sang this letra por tientos.

El limón con la canela
la rosita con el jazmín
así me huelen tus carnes
cuando yo me arrimo a ti.

Lemon with cinnamon
Rose with jasmine
this is how you smell to me
when I get close to you.

You can hear this letra at 1 minute and 25 seconds.

Here they are doing soleá por bulerías from a show we saw on last fall's Flamenco Tour.

Back to Tientos

We're studying tientos with Mercedes.

It's almost 2:00am, and we have class with her tomorrow morning at 10:30am.  That means it's time for bed.
