Cien reyes me preguntaron
¿Dónde se encuentra el amor?
Are you in the mood to listen to some good bulerías de Jerez?
Then you’ll love today’s clip of José Mijita and Manuel Parilla direct rom Jerez.
This is one of the letras you’ll hear…
Flamenco singers offer their personal flavor to the letras they sing,
In the quality of their voice,
their phrasing,
their mannerisms and facial expressions,
And with the words they choose…
Here’s a letra José Mijita sang during one of our online bulerias workshops:
Al cielo lo miro yo
Yo miro pa tus ojos

Here’s an estribillo you’ll hear:
Que no que no que no
Que nunca me has querido…

Yo sé que tú me quieres con delirio…

This is one of the letras he sings:
Watch this young talent, Ángeles Toledano, sing por alegrías.
She will amaze you.
Here is one of the letras she sings:
You know those songs you can listen to over and over again and never tire of?

It’s Rancapino Chico por tangos…
Here’s one of the (many) bulerías letras and coletillas Manuel Gutierrez sang for us in our bulerías workshop*.
It’s from La Macanita’s album Sólo por Eso.
Caña
En el querer no hay venganza,
tú te has vengaíto de mí
castigo tarde o temprano
del cielo te ha de venir.
This nine year old boy will blow you away.
You can watch and listen to him sing (and dance) on Tierra de Talento, but first here’s one of the letras he sings.
Tientos
El que diga que no siente
dolor en el corazón
Here’s a bulerías letra and a video you’ll love of Encarna Anillo.
Mira sí te quiero yo,
que por ti sería capaz
de sufrir la Inquisición
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
Watch and listen to Enrique Soto sing this letra por soleá…
Dices que tú a mí no me quieres
y pena yo no tenía ninguna
porque yo con tu querer
no tenía hecha escritura
