Eric van Santen, Holland
The tercio: a meaningful term which shares a streak of bullfighting and a streak
of cante. Creation is air, or resides in the air, and bullfighting is silence.
From tercio to tercio, cante fashions a performance with the cape, which the torero
also constructs in the air. It holds its breath, stands apart, charges. It is
another enigmatic bull which eyes us, and which also demands the price of absolute
aloneness. But here freedom breaks the chain and detachment and abandonment return
once again. And the air, a prison of anguish. And the air, that terrible air where
tercios float, is the only fatherland of free men.
Carmen, Brazil
Tercio is in reality a particle of the cante, comprising phrases or lines of
different rhythms and lengths which fit the language. It is short but never too
short to express feelings. Together they make up the copla (verse).
