This 2nd edition, 85 minutes of intense video, is the lesson you’ve been waiting for! It includes 5 different types of rasgueados plus a bonus; a modern rumba pattern and how to do alzapua, that crazy wild thing we do only with the thumb that sounds like thunder. These are the ultimate tools and techniques you need to play and sound flamenco. Broken down like never before, this will catapult your rasgueado technique to where it needs to be to play the hottest falsetas.
Rasgueados has always been a part of the Spanish Guitar tradition. It is very unfortunate that it is not used nearly enough in the classical guitar literature, and when it is, most classical guitarists don’t have much of a foundation in that technique. To quote maestro Pepe Romero: “where does it say in the Sevillanas by Juaquin Turina that you must play rasguedos that suck…”
A fair amount of classical guitar repertoire requires a properly executed rasguedo, yet the actual teaching of it and codifying into a detailed method and process is often lacking. This video is as much for a flamenco player as it is for a classical guitarist who wish to once and for all crack the mystery of these elusive techniques. Here you will learn techniques that are not taught in colleges and universities (with the exception of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, where maestro del Monte teaches :-D ).
