Taranto by Sabicas (1912-1990)
Sabicas was a tremendous genius of his day, not only with technique, but with major contributions, playing Flamenco previously unimaginable and giving new tools and possibilities for the solo instrument. He brought this art to concert halls and major theaters where all classes can enjoy. |
Notes
Flamenco. 70 bars. 5 pages. Time Signature: 4/4. key of D. Rasgueados.
The Taranto attributed to Sabicas is a mistake! This sheet music was written & perfomed by Juan Serrano & is entitled “Canto Minero”. It is located in a MELBAY publication “Juan Serrano, Flamenco Guitar Solos, released in 1993. MB94831.
I knew Sabicas & his brother. He did not play this arrangement.
