An interactive metronome for a traditional flamenco alegria, played with cajon and palmas.
A basic alegria rhythm, played here with cajon and palmas. The compas of alegrias accents the 3, 6, 8, 10, and 12 beats of the 12 beat cycle. Traditional alegria phrasing generally starts on the “one” count, though rhythm playing (as one might do for dancers) often also has a heavy 12.
