What makes the part famous

The techniques to work on to play it, each in one sentence.

  • Picado

    Flamenco's single notes, index and middle fingers alternating in rest strokes, at blinding speed.

  • Rasgueado

    The picking hand's fingers flick out one after another across the strings: flamenco's rolling strum.

Río Ancho chords

What the studio found on the isolated guitar of the recording: the key and the chords, with fingerings that flow from one to the next.

Automatic analysis: it can get a chord wrong, and your ear has the last word.

Analyze your own recording

Record yourself playing it, or upload a version you have the right to use: the studio isolates the guitar and finds the chords, tempo, strumming and fingerings, with a fretboard video and a PDF.
