Paco Peña - Riomar (Fandangos De Huelva)

[toomuchrose]

@armandorms Because this is a Flamenco guitar not a Classical guitar. Flamenco guitars are constructed differently, they're much lighter and the tuning pegs are made of Ebony, like a violin, to give maximum sound and tone quality. Also, Flamenco guitars usually have necks made of Cypress rather than mahogany which adds a brighter sound more suited to the percussive way Flamenco is played. Hope that helps.

[csegura26]

El alzapúa de Peña da miedo ... cuántos años hay que practicar para acercarse a algo así... uff

Me encanta Paco de Lucía pero creo que Paco Peña podría tocar igual que él...

Saludos desde Chile

@csegura26 hombre, igual que Paco de Lucía no llega nadie, pero Paco Peña es un gran maestro del que se pueden aprender muchas cosas, tiene falsetas muy bonitas y masfáciles de tocar que las de Lucía, lo digo con toda admiración porque realmente es muy bueno

0:19 holy hell, his guitar has taken a beating over the years! still sounds great

[Dzakovich000]

1:54 How was that humanly possible? So fast!

[nicoheckens1]

Not to give my a opinion...

[kateto0o95]

Awesome! This is the best flamenco guitarist.

[medianoche4ever]

è molto......eccitante....wow

[Dzakovich000]

Fantastic video. Some of the best shots of his right hand I have ever seen!

[jamh2000]

Ridiculously good, still the best traditional flamenco player, bar none!

[duendesoul]

it saddens me to see how little interest a video like this is creating in the youtube community. most guitar players don't appreciate the difficulty of executing every note the way Paco Pena does.

[TheBones48]

@duendesoul You are quite right in what you say.I look at it that we are gifted in being able to appreciate this wonderful art form and that most other people have not yet discovered what we have.I feel priviledged to have been given this gift early in my life.

[almowak2]

The greatest people are not necessarily the most famous ones. Nikola Tesla was the greatest electrical engineer to have ever lived. However, he is not nearly half as known as Thomas Edison.

Life is simply not fair.

I don't think there is any flamenco guitarist who plays as wonderfully as Paco Pena. I have yet to see him make a mistake.

I wish he was more famous but I guess the reason for this is that he didn't play jazz with a bunch of other guitarists like McLaughlin or Di Meola.

[Dzakovich000]

Nice Tesla reference. Most people don't even know Tesla technically invented the radio. Even after a Supreme Court case, people still say Marconi.

If you want to hear a mistake, listen to his album Flamenco and the piece Alegrias and go to 3:29. That is the only mistake I have ever heard Pena make. lol

[almowak2]

I know. It is unfortunate that Tesla died before the supreme court case . . .

I guess one mistake from time to time is fine :)

[VMGIAN]

1:40 sorry but it's a mistake

[Dzakovich000]

@VMGIAN Sounds like a recording artifact to me.

[Linilu1205]

@VMGIAN, not a chance. This guy has been playing the Spanish guitar for over 35 yrs. He's that good.

[gringochucha]
