    Jose Greco was born in Italy, and moved with his parents to New York. During an interview he was asked where he learned how to dance flamenco. His answer: "Brooklyn"! We enjoyed watching him perform and talking to him. The Farruca is one of my favorite pieces of flamenco music to play on guitar.

    Most of the time, I don't feel attracted to men dancing as performers. I usually find men singing or playing music very attractive. But male flamenco is the one exception. They are by far the sexiest male performers of any kind for me. I don't find the current flamenco dancers (male or female) even close technically and stylistically to those I saw coming through Miami in the 60' and 70's at Dade County Auditorium. They were international troupes with some of the then best in the world. Their ability to keep proper time, the cleanness of the sound, and the refined, finished quality of their technique and style was in another league to today's flamenco dancers. I'm afraid it is on the list of those dances which has been diluted in the past 50 years and is dying. Sorry to sound so negative, but you can't forget it when you have been exposed to an art form at it's best and purest...My favorite and a master teacher who came a few times to our studio was Jose Molina. I think - hope - he is still living and teaching in NYC. L.

    Essentially, and no order of importance, the chords are: D minor, A minor, E (dom. 7th). Standard fare for flamenco/Spanish music.
