I’m joined today by Mario Febres and Annie D’Orazio with the National Institute of Flamenco. Annie and Mario are here sharing important information about the Festival Flamenco Albuquerque in New Mexico, taking place June 9-17, 2023. It’s sure to be an event unlike any other in the U.S., with outstanding performances from top-level flamenco artists direct from Spain, as well as several opportunities to attend workshops.

One strumming hand. Five fingers. So many possibilities for rasgueos, right? Here, in this tutorial, I will present to you 12 rasgueos that I think you should be familiar with. In fact, if these were the only rasgueos you ever learned, you would be more than well-equipped to tackle any palo, and any compás, like a pro!

Now a quick note: you might notice that the three-fingered rasgueo (a, m, i) is not included in this index, well…don’t worry, nor fret (pun intended); I cover that very common rasgueo briefly while reviewing rasgueado #1 😉.

You may also notice that I use the palo of Verdiales quite a bit to demonstrate the rasgueado patterns; this is because Verdiales tends to be a good for demonstrating the uniqueness of each rasgueado pattern. Enjoy!

This is the first video tutorial in a series titled, "Fretboard Familiarity." In this tutorial, I will show you the chromatic scale; it's called that because fretting finger follows a chromatic path (i.e., C, C#, D, D#, E, F,F#,etc.). After completing this exercise, your fingers become more accustomed to the distance of the frets on the guitar--particularly when you adjust that distance by putting on a cejilla (capo). ...This exercise will also help your left hand endurance, left-hand finger agility, and right hand coordination between your index (i) and middle (m) fingers while alternating.

Although most flamenco palos originated from the Southern portion of Spain in Andalusia, there are some exceptions. The palo (flamenco style) of Farruca is from in the northern region of Spain in Asturias, and was adapted into the flamenco repertoire by flamenco artists. 

The Farruca can be a solo piece for the guitar, and can also be played for cante (singing) and baile (dancing).
In this progressive study for the flamenco guitar, you will learn how to play the basic rhythm of the Farruca, along with some beautiful falsetas (riffs/licks). 

I don't think I need to say that I hope you will enjoy this piece, because I know you'll love it.

In this lesson for the flamenco guitar, I will show you how to play two very energetic falsetas for the compás of rumba! I will warn you, it’s going to be a gople frenzy! 

…What does that mean? Well, in the flamenco guitar style, there is a technique called “golpe,” where the player taps on the golpeador (tapping plate), which is affixed to the face of the guitar body in order to protect the wood finish.

One of the things you will learn in this lesson is how to do a golpe with you anular (ring) finger and the medio (middle) finger. Each one of those types of golpe is executed in different eras of the golpeador. 

Aside from glolpes, there is much more that you will learn in this flamenco guitar tutorial. So grab your guitar, take notes, and let’s start playing!

You’ve probably heard this iconic falseta (flamenco riff) for the malagueña before; in fact, you may already know some iteration of it. It seems like—at least in my experience—that when someone is asked to play something “Spanish-sounding” on the guitar, this is the go-to falseta for the average player (and that’s perfectly fine!).

…But, I want more for you! I want you to really get the essence of this particular falseta by learning the basic resting thumb pattern well, so that I can show you how to add some arpeggios and even a tremolo to this falseta.

In this lesson guide, you will be introduced to five variations of the falseta, which will increase in difficulty as you progress through each level. After learning these variations, you will not only enjoy how they sound, but other’s will too; so that the next time someone asks you to play some “flamenco guitar,” you’ll really be able to catch their ear, and hopefully also catch…el duende! ¡Olé!

I've made a lot of different videos on the Rumba over the years. The most popular video by far has been the very first video tutorial I ever made, which was titled, "How to Play Rumba on the Flamenco Guitar."

Since then, I've wanted to go a bit more in-depth on the mechanics involved for the right hand. I also wanted to give you, the student, more visual aids to go along with the lesson.
I hope this revised lesson on how to play the rumba is helpful in explaining the fundamental movements of this particular compás. Enoy!

¡Hola! Peteneras is a palo in the flamenco repertoires that is a bit melancholy--to put it mildly; and in this in-depth lesson, you will not only be learning Peteneras, but you will also learn the centuries-old Spanish folkloric song, "El Vito," which I have arranged together for you to enjoy.

So grab you guitar and a cup of coffee, and let's get to it! ¡Vamanos!
