Watch this young talent, Ángeles Toledano, sing por alegrías.
She will amaze you.
Here is one of the letras she sings:
Here’s one of the (many) bulerías letras and coletillas Manuel Gutierrez sang for us in our bulerías workshop*.
It’s from La Macanita’s album Sólo por Eso.
This nine year old boy will blow you away.
You can watch and listen to him sing (and dance) on Tierra de Talento, but first here’s one of the letras he sings.
Tientos
El que diga que no siente
dolor en el corazón
Here’s a bulerías letra and a video you’ll love of Encarna Anillo.
Mira sí te quiero yo,
que por ti sería capaz
de sufrir la Inquisición
Alegrías
Ni en lo que cobija el sol
tú encontrarás un flamenquito
que a ti te quiera
igual que yo
Alegrías de Córdoba
Le regalé flores y flores
y me abrió su jardín
ya sé que estos amores
nunca tendrán fin

Because two hundred bulerías letras won’t suffice, here’s one more for you.
This one’s used at the end of another letra as a coletilla.
A few weeks ago a flamenco loving Spanish student contacted me and asked if I could help her with the words from the following tangos sung by Luis Ortega.
As with any traditional flamenco song, this one is a collection of unrelated verses that Luis puts together to form a “song.”
