Taken from the Bulerias Compás tutorial video, we've put together 1 minute of compás and looped them 10X times so for easy play-along practice.

Taken from the Alegrias Compás tutorial video, we've put together 1:20 minutes of compás and looped them 10X times so for easy play-along practice.

In this crucial video for practicing to stay in compás as you add falsetas to your Bulerías repertoire, we break it down and look at a simple exercise for reinforcing good compás.

This Alzapua falseta is relatively simple but has one new feature, which is that rather than start on beat 12 it starts on beat 11. Thinking of beat 11 as a pickup to a downbeat on beat 12 can help make this feel more natural.

A picado falseta that is phrased in 8th notes, which each phrase starting on beat 12 and ending on beat 6.

This Bulerías falseta starts on 11 and then goes on to a phrase that’s one and a half compáses long. The repeat features an extended ending with a very syncopated rhythm, and the falseta ends on 10.

This Bulerías falseta - which can also be thrown in as a “detalle” (literally a detail, this can be a short flourish or something less than a falseta that you throw in somewhere) - features a great thumb and index technique that’s unique to flamenco, as well as a different kind of 6-beat phrase.

Probably the most jubilant falseta in the whole Bulerías course, this one has some interesting staccato syncopation at the beginning, and continues to some syncopated versions of otherwise traditional phrasing.

This arpeggio falseta features some beautiful chords - and melodies within each chord - as well as some tricky syncopated anticipations of the downbeat of each phrase. You can also play the chord progression with rasgueados rather than arpeggios, or you can do both, as we do here.

While perhaps not technically a falseta (there’s no real definition that I know of, but this feels like a bit less than a falseta), this is a great little bit to throw in between falsetas or after the singer has finished a letra. Check out the way the melody connects to the 10-11-12 phrase that p...
