I want to learn how to play flamenco guitar and so far nobody around my area can help me much, I understand choros which are from brazil, but flamenco guitar is awesome............. If anyone can map out the strumming patterns I would be greatly happy. And I'm also new to this forum, so if I like it, I may post some stuff as well such as music theory, counterpoint and harmony, secondary functions inversions and all of the good stuff that is hidden deep in a music building. Peace The fundamental compáses are: 1. Soleá (12-beat) 2. Bulería (12-beat) 3. Siguiriya (12-beat) 4. Alegría (12-beat) 5. Tientos (4-beat) 6. Tangos (4-beat) 7. Guajíra (12-beat) 8. Petenera (12-beat) 9. Fandango (3-beat)
Hi! i'm also a newbie, and honestly i don't know anything more than standard 4/4 alternate picking they teach in the first few lessons... This flamenco style sounds like something new - can u name some good flamenco songs so that people who haven't heard it before can get initiated?
hey bro.. flamenco is simple but requires a steady practice everyday for at least an hour. Forget about compass etc.. first learn the rasgeodo technique till you develop strength in your fingers..may take 4 months.. then it slowly unfolds lots of flamenco secrets… all the best
