The flamenco bass began to be part of flamenco thanks to Paco de Lucía, who saw the need to incorporate this string instrument and opened up that space for it. From its very beginning, the bass has been evolving and seeking its place within this music.

The PotenciArte project proposes a task at a recreational, social and cultural level. The combination of these areas will result in the execution of a fruitful learning process. In this case, fun will be the fundamental vehicle to achieve the objectives. Flamenco is one of the most ancient and important contributions that Spain makes to the rest of the world. However, it is a cultural element that is very unknown even to members of the same country in terms of its origin, evolution and forms of expression and projection.

Flamenco singing and dancing masterclass

Our aim with this course is to study the different ways of marking the bulerías of Jerez both in singing and dancing. With this masterclass we join, as a prologue, the celebration in the city of its annual Fiesta de La Bulería. Macarena de Jerez is currently one of the most valid representatives of the festive character of her land on stages around the world. In addition to mastery of the beat, she has gained experience through her participation in clubs and festivals since she was very young.

We will study the Jerez bulería from top to bottom. The Cadiz bulería in major keys and we will deal with the bulería in other keys and tunings, both for accompaniment and solo guitar. Francisco Javier Patino Hedrera was born in the Jerez and flamenco neighborhood of San Miguel on February 14, 1974. His beginnings in flamenco guitar began with the Jerez masters José Luis Balao and Manuel Lozano El Carbonero, although he later expanded his training with prestigious musicians such as Manolo Sanlúcar and Gerardo Núñez.
