You've probably read the basics about sevillanas.

And you've probably seen my detailed explanation of the steps to the sevillanas I learned in Jerez, from Harumi who learned them from Ani.

But now,

What about sevillanas with castanets?

The toque for the first sevillanas is here, along with the reason why I write them out in two different ways.

And you can find the toque for the second one here.

Today I post the third one ...

Way 1

The way to write it that makes less sense to me:

La Tercera

Ta ria chi pam ta ria pita

Ria ria pita

Ta ria chi pam chi

Ta ria chi pam ta ria pita

Ria chi pam chi

Ta ria chi pam ta ria pita

 

Ria ria pita ria ria pita

Ria ria pita

Ta ria ria pita

Ta ria ria pita

Pam ta ria pita

Ria chi pam ta ria pita

 

Ria ria pita ria ria pita

Ria chi pam ta ria pita

Ria chi pam chi

Ta ria chi pam ta ria pita

Ria chi pam chi

Ta ria

Pam ta ria pam

Way 2

A different way to write it.  The sounds are the same as the ones above.

Something to Do

Remember, this is just one pattern you could use.  Go to YouTube and do a search for sevillanas con castañuelas to hear other variations.

And now, give it a try

Try this out.  Let me know how it worked for you.  Was the third one easier than the second?  Hmmm.  Leave a comment below.
