What “instrument” is Emilio Ochando playing in the video below?
HINT: You can find these in anybody’s kitchen.
Here’s one of the letras that he dances to in this piece:
Sometimes you want to know a song to go along with the dance form you're studying in class. Other times you want to know the words to that particular flamenco song you like so much. And sometimes you long to know what those words mean.
Here you'll find a collection of letras (flamenco verses) organized by palo (flamenco form.)
This week, since I am in Málaga, verdiales and a video.
Verdiales
Hojita de limón verde
y flor blanca de azahar…
sale mi niña a bailar,
y un rayo de sol se prende
en sus enaguas bordás.
