Soleá metronome

The soleá compás ready to practise: twelve beats with the accents in place, at a comfortable tempo.

The soleá compás

It's counted in twelve beats with accents on 3, 6, 8, 10 and 12. It's the mother of many flamenco styles: bulerías, alegrías and soleá por bulerías all share this accent pattern, each at its own speed.

How to practise

Start very slowly and count out loud from 1 to 12, clapping the accents. Once you have it, raise the tempo gradually with the speed trainer.

Frequently asked questions

How is it different from bulerías?

The accents are the same, but soleá is much slower and bulerías usually starts counting on 12.
