Pastora Galván dances as José Valencia sings today’s letra to her.
Soleá por Bulerías
Yo me he enamorado
y ya no me enamoro más
Last week we went to Gran Teatro Falla in Cádiz to see Marco Flores’s latest production, Sota, Caballo y Reina.
The show was incredible, and seeing it from the front row made the experience absolutely magical.
Here’s a soleá José Valencia sang:
Here is an excerpt from José Galán’s Cierra Los Ojos y Mírame followed by the live flashmob direct from the Bienal de Sevilla with José Valencia and María Terremoto singing.
Today’s letra is a bit different than usual. It’s not actually a song verse…
Watch the presentation of José Galán’s choreography for the 2018 Bienal de Sevilla flashmob, and read the phrases recited during the introduction. Next week I’ll publish part ofthe song along with a video from the actual flashmob.
I mentioned that we saw José Valencia at Tablao Cordobés. Seeing him in that intimate setting felt magical.
Here is one of the letras he sang:
Taranta
Mira lo que te he comprao
que vengo de las minas de las Carboneras
que mira lo que te he comprao
unas botas de cartera
con los botones a un lao
te las pones cuando quieras
Look at what I bought you...
Tonight we went back to Tablao Cordobés to see David perform. He danced por soleá, and he was on fire.
Everyone was.
Below is a letra La Tana sang tonight por bulerías.
Bulerías
A mí me llaman La Loca
porque vivo a mi manera
y aunque viva equivoca
seré feliz hasta que me muera
They call me The Crazy One . . .
