Tientos
Song with a 'copla' of three or four, eight syllable, verses that belong to the family of the 'tangos', from which they take their beat although at a slower rhythm. It is a recent creation, probably at the start of the XX century. Its first great performer was Diego el Marrurro, although references are also made of a great enthusiast in Jerez called Pepe el Gallo. Despite this, the great disseminator of this style is Antonio Cacón and not, as has been written on many occasions, Manuel Torre. Presently it is a style with great validity that nearly all the singers perform.
