The piece for today is titled Soleá by Manuel Granados. It is from Método Elemental de la Guitarra Flamenca, page 52. Soleá — plural = “soleares” — is not only the title of this piece but also one of many styles of flamenco music. It originated around the mid-1800s and is one of earliest styles of flamenco music. The soleá is a 12-beat style of flamenco with accents typically either on the 3, 6, 8, 10 & 12 or the 3, 7, 8, 10 & 12. The primary scale used for the style of “soleá” is the Spanish Phrygian scale which includes both a minor 3rd AND a major 3rd — although the major 3rd for harmony is only used for the tonic chord (i.e., the home-base chord). Soleares are traditionally written in either E or A Spanish phrygian and are characterized by their slow tempo (quarter-note = 70-100BPM), their heavy and dramatic expressive quality and the usage of the Andalucían Cadence (which I discuss in another video).

*NOTE: It is very important to understand that Flamenco music is originally based on the singing. The guitar’s roll was traditionally accompaniment. It was only after Ramón Montoya, the first solo concert flamenco guitarist in history, that the guitar started taking on its soloistic roll in parallel with its accompaniment roll.
