Here’s a nice variation on the traditional SIlencio section of the Alegrias. The Silencio is a slower section in the danced Alegrias that is played in the parallel minor key. It is traditionally six compases long and is phrased similarly to the Escobilla (but slow and in minor). This particular Silencio is one I wrote that is a bit of an update to the traditional Silencio (which you should also learn if you haven’t already). It’s not terribly technical, so it’s a nice addition to your repertoire, especially if you accompany dance. Big thanks to GSI for lending this fantastic guitar - a Conde negra that is basically the guitar that Paco played and made so famous. It doesn’t get more iconic than this!
