Such an intriguing sound though. 2-1/2 minute video, “El Vito”, Embrujo Mestizo. https://youtu.be/TuHHUDnFSO0 Serious about crackers | ||

And that answers the question I posed in my thread title: multiple fingers in sequence. I thank you for it. Then, back in the video I posted, I can (barely) see the multiple-fingers in action. Especially at 0:50 for a few seconds on. BTW – In your video it appears that the left and right hand castanets have different sizes. Especially at 3:15. Or is it a trick of perspective? Which reminds me of this ditty: Said to his bride, the lynx-eyed detective Is your east tit the least bit The best of your west tit Or is it a trick of perspective? Serious about crackers | |||

I don't know Spanish or the instrument she is playing. In a different video, the woman was showing the area where thumb goes as having shallow notches and being different from on hand to the other. I surmise that those marks may show a different sound made by them. --Tom The right of self preservation, in turn, was understood as the right to defend oneself against attacks by lawless individuals, or, if absolutely necessary, to resist and throw off a tyrannical government. | |||

That's easy. There's four fingers that can tap in succession. What's tiring for me is how she holds her arms like that. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

More fast clicking! In this case for the Boccherini Guitar Quintet No. 4. (7 minute video): https://youtu.be/QrdeD8LLoCM All of the players are working hard, but watch the guy on the cello – he’s really putting on a show! BTW – A guitar quintet isn’t five guitars – it’s a string quartet + a guitar. Of the many Boccherini guitar quintets, I like No. 4, “Fandango”, and No. 9, “Night Music on the Streets of Madrid” best.

Run away with you, before I make castanets out of your testicles! Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus | |||

Fetchez la vache! Guilty as charged. I cannot see the word “castanet” without immediately wanting to debate the airspeed of an African vs European swallow, and whether they can carry a coconut.
