Colombianas
(Song and dance form) A delightful song form based on the melodies and rhythms of Colombian
folk music. Like the Guajiras, Colombianas was brought into Spain in the 16th century by the
returning Conquistadors. This form was brought to prominence by Carmen Amaya and Sabicas. For
those who like a good argument, it has been suggested that Colombianas, like Rumba and
Guajiras, is a variation on the Argentinean Tango.

Toques
Flamencos
By Paco Pena.
This book has 10 pieces that are well worth learning.
All music is written in standard notation and tab. While it's not exactly a
beginners book, it does contain a wealth of traditional falsetas and rasgueado
patterns. I have always liked Paco Peña's playing because it's clean and the
compás is always well defined.
I learned the Colombiana from this book because the
first time I heard it I was hooked. This piece presented an enormous technical
challenge to me, especially for my right hand. But it had such an irresistible
aura, I was determined to master it. My playing ultimately improved as a result
of practicing it endlessly. Good thing too, because when I started playing
regular gigs with dancers, they talked me into playing Colombiana as the
opening number. It is a beautiful and uplifting piece to play. I can think of
nothing better for improving technique (in both hands) than to learn music that
is such a joy to listen to. Other titles Every piece in this book is a
masterpiece. I highly recommend it.
