about

This piece was written after the death of guitarist Paco de Lucía in 2014, and was written as a sort of elegy. It is not meant to be literally flamenco in style, though some flamenco concepts can still be observed. Paco de Lucía would often perform solo, complete with percussive taps to the instrument’s body, and when accompanied, the traditional clapping (palmas) would be present. In my piece there is a clapping section as the penultimate section of the work that renders a 7-layer canonic figuration. This symmetrical reflection rhythm, augmented by foot pedals played by Dimond and Sherriff and ultimately King on drum kit, is not dissimilar in effect to the interlocking effect of palmas. The 3:4 polyrhythm and its rotations are also a common motif throughout the work.
