Contributed by: WMC_News_Dept.

New FilmsBarcelona, Spain - Ventilador Music has released an educational video titled La percusión en el Flamenco [Flamenco percussion] (DVB300), by Nan Mercader. It's designed to be an essential tool to learn about Flamenco beats. It includes an analysis of Flamenco rhythms (palos) flamencos, including palmas (handclapping percussion); a section dedicated to the cajón with sounds, exercises and guides to play bulerias, tangos, tanguillos and rumba. There is also a section to the tinaja (clay pot), with exercises, sounds and rhythms.

All exercises use a meter (metronome) and are performed with guitar and vocals (cante). At the end there is a performance by Carles Benavent, Jorge Pardo, Vicky Romero and Nan Mercader.

The DVD is 70 minutes long and comes with information in 4 languages: Spanish, English, Italian and French.
