PACO DE LUCIA - Almoraima (Bulerias) (1976 UK Live TV Performance) ~ HIGH QUALITY HQ ~

PACO DE LUCIA - Almoraima (Bulerias) (1976 Live UK TV Performance). The BBC incorrectly credited the title as ' Entre Dos Aguas' which is an entirely different track by Paco De Lucia.

Quite possibly one of the best ever recorded live guitar performances in any genre. I have watched this many times and every time totally blown away that it’s even possible to play like this. But beyond the technical virtuosity he is playing music with deep meaning, rich in culture and passion. We use the word virtuoso a lot nowadays but it really does need to be reserved for great artists like Paco who transcend the technicality of an instrument to produce great art. Just sublime on every level.

Absolutely incredible. I am so fortunate around 2003 I saw him live at Bass Hall in Fort Worth TX. I simply did not know what I was witnessing. I wasn’t familiar with Flemenco music at that time as I was in college. Paco is and forever will be the best guitar player ever to walk this earth.

@@ConcedoNulli it is what it is, it's a bulerias ...it's a genre in flamenco. Has its own swing just like jazz and a lot of the charm is about the rhythm and percussion and the fast tempo which is normal for this genre, there are other stuff of his more melodious if mad virtuosity is not your thing. Started hearing this type of music about 20 years ago and it made almost no sense to me cause of the "weird" rhythm, it's not 4/4 like regular music and it's not waltz either. Once your ear gets around this and you can see hear how it repeats, becomes much more enjoyable. If you listen other flamenco genres like tangos, or rumba or fandangos which have a more conventional rhythm I think you would find it more bearable. Not very surprising traditional music makes no sense if it's not your tradition the first time you hear it, but if you grow up hearing it it's different. I wonder how was for people to listen to blues for the first time, pretty sure it took a while to "get it"

what nonsense my man. Thats freaking BBC four, very few people cared about this back in 76 as well. Just as little as people care today about great flamenco guitarists. But its not that you never see virtuoso players on TV. You see them quite frequently for other instruments like piano or violin in big concert-evenings on TV, even on the main channels. There's better music out there than ever, just eat less of those memberberries and keep your eyes open for the good stuff.

@@jaimecueva121 El tema es interesante. El flamenco desde luego no es una creación española, es producto de la evolución de músicas de origen gitano (desde su peregrinación desde la zona de la India, pasando por todo oriente medio y europa), y de su fusión con otras culturas musicales. En particular, con la música árabe que trajeron los musulmanes a la península, aunque también con otras como la fenicia o la cartaginesa (casi todo esto en la mitad sur de la península). Como siempre, la cultura no tiene dueño. Quien la sienta, la disfrute y/o la avance es parte de ella, y muchos españoles se sienten identificados con el flamenco. Sin embargo, es innegable que el principal motor del flamenco han sido siempre los gitanos, que la han respirado día a día, que lo han escuchao, cantao, tocao y bailao en la calle y en sus casas a diario. El flamenco es parte de la cultura española, pero sobre todo es un pilar de la cultura gitana. Todo esto sin entrar en el tema de cómo los gitanos suelen percibirse en la sociedad española (vagos, delincuentes, mentirosos, etc.), pero cóm se nos hincha el pecho en España al defender aspectos de la cultura que nos han proporcionado los mismos gitanos a los que denostamos.

Paco ... gracias ... donde sea que estés ... en el cielo seguro .. tocándole feliz a dios tu guitarra seguro ... tu vida es un honor para el arte, El sonido, los conciertos y las grabaciones de Paco rinden homenaje a su padre, un hombre excepcionalmente visionario y verdaderamente revolucionario, que con tanto amor hizo de Paco un artista único y genial, similar a otros padres como Mozart, Beethoven ... La magia y el duende de paco provino de estudios autodidactas intensivos... su padre obligándole a ejecutar escalas y escalas... y tocar para comer... todo es gestar y luego parir dice Rilke,,, esos años de estudio durísimo le hicieron quien es... y su padre fue crucial... fue su voluntad... vivan los padres de los genios...la mitad del mérito es de ellos. Tiene la mezcla más difícil de todas, virtud y virtuosismo, es un poeta del instrumento. Paco no es solo un artista del más alto calibre, disciplina y musicalidad, sino el arquetipo del artista moderno, el maestro aislado y valiente, que encuentra su propio camino hacia nuevas alturas de expresión, sin importar los prejuicios o las barreras de incomprensión levantadas en su contra. Se encuentra solo al comienzo de una nueva época como un profeta, trazando los caminos que tomara el arte. El sonido catártico y místico de Paco, se ocupa por los últimos misterios que trascienden en este mundo. Su arte grandioso, colosal y majestuoso, simboliza la lucha del alma humana por encontrar la liberación de las ataduras de su cuerpo material. Su música exquisita y abrumadora continúa resonando durante toda el recital y más allá, por lo que la acción es a la vez momentánea, eterna y completa. Las interpretaciones de Paco son indescriptiblemente bellas e irresistibles. Su sonido es pura poesía y extremadamente emocional, pero sin sentimentalismos. Nos hipnotiza su nueva y radical naturalidad, su nobleza, dignidad, severidad y sobriedad; transportándonos a estados de asombro, éxtasis, meditación, amor y compasión. - Sonido y Silencio, Vida y Muerte, Tiempo y Espacio; colapsan en el momento Eterno del Infinitud. - Está al nivel de los mejores músicos interpretes de la historia como Maria Callas, Vladimir Horowitz, Ivo Pogorelich ... Paco podría haber haber coincidido con estos consejos del gran pianista Ivo Pogorelich... "Lucha y encuentra la sustancia, luego ve a las esferas superiores. La música te lleva a otro universo de eternidad que permanece contigo una vez finalizado el concierto. Lucha por conseguir calidad, profundiza ... encuentra el origen del sonido. La técnica no es solo ir rápida y lento ... es el sonido, el sonido largo, la paleta de colores, es entrar en un espacio de mundos diferentes, alcanzando la diversidad de los sonidos. Rachmaninov tenía artritis al final de su vida, estaba tan débil que su sonido era muy corto, por eso tocaba rápido, para llenar el vacío. Si tienes un sonido largo estás al mando y puedes lograr la claridad y el sonido hipnótico entre las notas. El problema siempre fue el conflicto y la diferencia entre la calidad absoluta y la relativa. La belleza en la música es como en los diamantes, el diamante más puro del mundo es el Koh-i-Noor, es la belleza absoluta con la que se comparan otros con relativa belleza. La mayoría de la música que pude escuchar fue solo un acto circense, ostentoso... de piezas virtuosas para pianistas jóvenes e inmaduros, fueron solo pruebas de destreza mecánica manual, no arte. Hay que adentrarse en el estado de ánimo psicológico en el que los compositores escribieron sus obras para descubrir sus secretos. Trabaja tan duro como un esclavo de galeras. No practico ejercicios. Cuando practico una pieza, hago algunas variaciones de ella, inventando mis propios ejercicios para ayudar en ese lugar particular preciso que necesito mejorar. La técnica es el arte de la variedad, el arte de saber cómo ajustar la mano a un grupo particular de notas para producir un sonido particular que se ajuste a las expectativas particulares del oído. El sonido se vuelve metafísico solo cuando se ha explorado completamente todas las posibilidades físicas. Deberías explorar hasta llegar al absurdo. Siempre se debe intentar en la medida de lo posible redescubrir la música como si la estuvieras escuchando por primera vez, buscando por todas partes nuevos significados y nuevas profundidades. La función más alta del artista es liberar la espiritualidad y la inmediatez emocional que se encuentran dentro de la partitura. Estar constantemente involucrado en la investigación, no solo miro las cosas como aparecen, sino que también trato de encontrar los laberintos, los secretos de la música. Una composición solo se puede interpretar bien si es completamente tuya, no solo cada nota de la memoria, sino que las notas se han convertido en ti y tu te has convertido en las notas. Nada pasa por casualidad. Llámalo una fuerza que algunas personas piensan que controla lo que sucede en el futuro, y está fuera del control humano, llámalo preordenación, pero a veces sucede. Después de todo, el elemento humano trae la felicidad total ". Ivo Pogorelich. Para ser grande, sé entero: nadaTuyo exageres o excluyas. Sé todo en cada cosa. Pon cuanto eres En lo mínimo que hagas, Por eso la luna brilla toda En cada lago, porque alta vive. Fernando Pessoa

The speed the precision and coordination left/ right hands are beyond belief...just magic what humans r capable of....

[@Jamminmotorking]

I'm in total awe of Paco de Lucia! He was a pure musician

[@jesus7357]

The master of Masters, greatest guitarist ever! Thank you Paco for all your music, VIVA PACO POR SIEMPRE!!!

[@TheHitman-]

Paco= Best ever.

[@franciscoruanogomez]

¡The greatest one!

[@louaceveu1925]

Like a good wine, it reveals itself with different layers of complexity. Just awesome!

[@thomassicard3733]

Sometimes, I groove on a very jazz feel in his playing. So natural, smooth, rhythmically compelling... I can't really put it into words...

[@diplomarbeitchile]

nunca hubo uno que uniera en si la sabiduría de la fuente con el peso de modernidad con la profundida con la que lo hiciera Paco. Expresión máxima y saber total. Aparte: que filmación mas hermosa! de lo mejor que he visto en cualquier transmision de guitarra solista. (Hay una de yamandu costa en una pelicula de kaursimäkki creo, que se aproxima.)

[@amparosantiagonunez5205]

el mejor guitarrista de flamenco no hay ni lo habrá otro como lo fue paco de lucia el maestros de maestros, k en paz descanse.

[@caetareo]

Genio entre los genios ... Ya estás en tu Algeciras a la q tanto evocabas en tus discos la que llevabas tanto en tu alma .. Te amamos todos tus paisanos , los algecireños !

[@miguelruiz7756]

Sin Paco, el mundo hubiese pasado de lado por el flamenco, Maestro de Maestros!

[@videos6897]

¡Incomparable! Y siempre recordado.

[@rickdg]

Everyone: "Better go after the notes early to make sure I get to them." Paco: "A wizard is never late."

[@andalucia4510]

El mas grande de todos los tiempos! Paco!!!

[@83alexgym]

Paco tenia el don de la composición perfecta y el pellizco y compás de los flamencos viejos como Sabicas y el niño Ricardo y eso es lo que le hizo único la mezcla de lo moderno y lo antiguo a parte de su técnica y rapidez

[@adamnasser8707]

La perfección existe.perfection exists

[@James-ig1vp]

Wish i was born earlier to have seen this god

[@benjaminmartelllazo3400]

I wish the same amigo! Camarón and Paco the greatest of all time.

[@frankdelucia38]

Thanks Paco for all that have given the world. You were a true innovator. A once in a lifetime legend in our time. Your creative ideas and genius transcended your instrument. Bravo to you and your life!

[@dariomaiello393]

El Unico, Grande Paco. Ambassador de Flamenco en el Mundo. Puro Fuego, Pura Alma. Impeccabile Maestro! Your fingers look like dancing flamenco too...

[@amcmc4641]

He was young, imagine when he was sixty. Totally amazing!!

[@JoelBerghoff]

I have to say that's the best I've ever seen, and I've seen some pretty good comb-overs in my day.

[@luiseduardofraire]

simplemente ..el rey del flamenco...rip...nadie como el ...

[@buntonboy]

Beautiful music played by Paco de Lucia, I knew about this song due to bulgarian rhythmic gymnast Silviya Miteva using it for her ribbon routine back at 2011 & 2012, she pleased the crowd in London 20212 with this music!!

[@cheguevarra6846]

Made the Guitar into an art..RIP .#Maestro.

[@NedBoukharine]

This guy is not human! He was dropped from an alien spaceship by accident. I think he is a god from the Alpha Centauri constellation.

[@joseantoniodavila2752]

He was a monster. In Spain we call "monsters" to those who are above excellence.

[@no1taka]

最高です。心に響きます。偉大な方に感謝
