Tangos
Tangos is a
flamenco cante closely related in form and feeling to the
Rumba. It is often performed as a finale to a
Tientos. Its compass and llamada are the same as that of the
Farruca and share the Farruca's lively nature. However, Tangos is normally performed in the A
Phrygian mode.Tangos is distinct from the Rumba primarily through the guitar playing. In Rumba the guitar flows more freely, whereas in Tangos the accents on beats 2, 3 & 4 are marked clearly with heavy strumming.Tangos flamenco is not related to
Argentine Tango, besides binary compás (rhythm).
