Themes You’ll Hear

  • Love and loss, exile and return.
  • Work, family, and dignity.
  • Everyday detail as poetry.
  • Pride and humor in cantes festeros (party songs).

Duende is not a trick — it’s the door that opens when emotion meets craft.

Forms (At a Glance)

Cante Character Feel
Soleá Deep, spacious Long phrases, breath
Seguiriyas Ancient, raw Tension and release
Alegrías Bright, coastal Smiles in melody
Tangos Earthy, social Groove and sway

How to Listen

  • Notice melismas (ornamental runs).
  • Respect the silences between verses — they hold meaning.
  • The room will breathe with the singer.

Practice Prompt

  • Write one line you’d sing after a heartbreak; keep it simple.
  • Speak it softly over a slow compás; feel where it lands.
