Paco Peña - Tientos De La Bahía

Paco Peña - Tientos De La Bahía, from the 1976 TV program "The Five Faces Of The Guitar"

[@baldrick1485]

I respect all the great guitarists, who are many. But listen how clean, non-aggressive, confident playing. Arguably one of the best.

[@pattietatoo]

As far as Traditional Flamenco goes, There is no one whom I have heard or seen in concert who plays with such sublime beauty and exacting compass' as does Paco Pena. He is never overly busy with his playing, always realizing that the silence and where the next note is placed is of extreme importance in rendering the true flamenco feeling. I would love to meet him one day!

[@Annihilation_0f_The_Wicked9066]

Type Juan Serrano Soleares por Bulerias and come back. Believe me that it won't get better than him

Pure God-given talent. I saw Paco live in Sydney once - unbelievable. PACO ! WE LOVE YOU !

[@Annihilation_0f_The_Wicked9066]

This is pure hard work. No imaginary talent will replace years and years of persistent and dedicated playing.

[@JednookiStarzec]

Wooooow! Awesome. Paco Pena is the best flamenco guitarist I've ever heard

[@antoniobrandao1]

As a flamenco guitarist, it was one of the greatest honors of my life to handshake this incredibly wise and humble mano in Holland a couple of months ago. He's not only a guitar virtuoso, but also an incredibly nice person to talk to. For me, he is the greatest guitarist and visionary in the history of Flamenco after Sabicas, along with Niño Miguel. I deeply admire how these artists excelled while staying true to PURE Flamenco.

[@attilakovacs5803]

Agreed!

[@uffesteenberg]

Such a fanatstic composition and performance... especially from minute 3:30... very nice sort of arab/moorish sound. This is one of the tracks that got me hooked on flamenco in the first place.

[@baglama00]

Finely I passed the audition for flamenco in Rotterdam conservatuary. And my biggest dream comes to reality, and YES maestro Paco Pena accepted me.. I was waiting for years. Now I can start in september. This is so awesome..

Saw Paco in Sydney when both he and I were young. Still my favourite.

[@gingersam851]

Late 70s I think. So long ago that I can't remember the venue.

[@spicyone]

same over here. the purity, easy-looking playing and the incredible sound it produces are unequalled. everytime you look at it/ hear it.

[@Y2H]

Very classy! Pieces like this make Flamenco Music as complicated and classy as Classical Music!!!

[@Annihilation_0f_The_Wicked9066]

Flamenco is harder to play than classical guitar

[@terraargentea]

@@Annihilation_0f_The_Wicked9066 Solo un ignorante que jamás tocó una guitarra puede decir eso. Todo depende qué pieza. Podés ver a Paco de Lucia pasando vergüenza al intentar tocar el Concierto de Aranjuez, luego escuchalo a Narciso Yepes y verás que gran diferencia.

On top of that you need to have a natural prodigal talent. Truly rare.

I'm seeing Paco live tonight - can't wait. I'm not even fit to change his strings!

[@fernandomartin5693]

Insisto unos de los guitarristas de ESPAÑA

[@testerboy2]

The best flamenco player i have ever seen.i want to see him

[@tmjcbs]

It's not 'all' about dedication, the upper limit of what you're capable of will ultimately be set by your musical talent. That's what sets Pena, De Lucia, Bream & Williams, to name a few, apart from the rest.

[@Cyrloud]

une merveille de pureté

and who are u? if u dont know me that doesnt matter at all....in my country Im well known enough..but its not important I said that Paco Pena is an artist who has practiced very much...thats why he is so perfect.

Worlds best acoustic guitarist? Probably.

[@attilakovacs5803]

Amazing Andalusian atmosphere!

[@flmnkoh]

De las pocas veces que he visto a Paco Peña usar una guitarra con clavijero de tornillo, en vez de sus preferidas con clavijas de madera al estilo antiguo. -Me pregunto si siempre usó las guitarras de Gerundino Fernandez. -Que bien sonaba Paco en esa epoca, ya era un gran ejecutante con un sonido flamenco tradicional muy disfrutable.

This is goddammed unbelievable playing isn't it. He came to an auditorium near to where I lived as a teenager. I remember wanting to go but didn't make it on the night.

best guitarist ever, with Paco de Lucia ofcourse.

[@axlrosea675]

i agree with you both. de lucia is technically so super-skilled that i can deal with his lack of passion at times.

The original version can be found on his remastered cd "Fabulous Flamenco" on Amazon; however is not this special performance.

just watched paco at csula.. very great performance.

[@Iveria1]

very beautiful music

[@KingOfShadows1500]

@TheKenTama OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU are the one who gets confused! classical is NOT only a musical style but ALSO a type of guitar which has nylon strings and fat neck. acoustic guitars have THIN necks and STEEL strings! also, acoustic guitars are mostly used for chords and accompaniment while classical guitars are used to play pieces like this one and mostly flamenco. there!!!! now you get it?

[@kcvidsonline]

@DC180 They are all OK in their own "context". But... Flamenco is the most technical, beautiful, emotional & rewarding style of guitar playing that exist !

[@KingOfShadows1500]

@LopanTheLemming he is a classical player, not acoustic!

@DC180 why vai, satch, and clapton not real guitarists. they just enjoy a different style style of guitar. nothing wrong with that. there are many great styles of guitar. like rock, blues, jazz, fusion, classical, flamenco, country, fingerstyle, ect. i view that what satch, vai, and clapton do is just as great(if not better) as this.

amazing! but to think i missed him playing in edinburgh last friday! raging with myself :-(

[@tmjcbs]

@zbnmth if it's that easy, it's odd then that there are only a few class flamenco players (and other top class musicians in general). Besides the technical ability, don't ignore musical talent - that's ultimately what sets top class musicians apart.

@roflswamp6 well maybe it was for him i am just saying the right hand technique is where the big defference lies in flamenco thats the technical part of it, but the left hand can be technical in anything, well i guess we all have opinions :P

[@greenrots]

Bravo!

[@solea59]

It's not music from latin america, it's Flamenco from Andalucia Spain. Some Andalucians did go to south america long ago and returned to Andalucia with some latin american rhythms , i.e. guajiras and colombianas etc.

[@uffesteenberg]

I have an album featuring this composition (on the album it's called Tientos del Puerto). Just search paco peña 1970 in Emule :-)

[@roflswamp6]

@gimpyjwilliams Idk about that cause I knew a 16 year old who was trained in both classical and rock and he learned Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai, and Joe satriani songs with ease, he also learned mozart pieces and bach pieces on the classical. but even he tells me that flamenco is muuch harder than that...

[@greekyboy123]

This is great. Do you have other clips from this programme? I remember coming home in 76 and being hacked off because I missed most of it. The Bream spot is already posted, but if memory serves, Barney Kessell was also on, along with Jeff Beck - not sure who the fifth 'face' was...????

I was listening to some albums and isolated recordings of Paco Pena's on KZbin the other day. Flamenco Paco Pena/(Paco Pena Flamenco) was the first LP of his that I bought as a young teenager.

[@AbharKhoram]

دوست داشتنی و عالی

[@elmanomato]

Paco Pena plays the triple rasgueados in this pattern: p-e-i, p-e-i and so on..this has been invented by himself (the traditional one is p-m-p sequence)...at the start, he plays the sequence of rasguedos with 5 strokes in each period,i.e. e-a-m-i+ an upstroke i! (the 5th beat)...it's also too difficult to play in such a lonag passage ...see also his book toques-flamencos and keep on trying!

[@TheKenTama]

@KingOfShadows1500 You are still getting confused with type of guitar and the playing style of guitar. Hand Paco Pena an electric guitar and tell him to play this same piece of music. Would you still consider that Flamenco style? He would be playing different guitars, but he would he be playing different notes? The answer is NO. That is the style. However, the guitar would change from being an acoustic classical/flamenco guitar to an electric guitar. That is the type of guitar.
