Just wanted to say thanks from someone who has been playing guitar for several years. It's a lot harder to find quality material on music once you move out of standard pop and rock, and your channel is excellent. Thank you for taking the time to go over the rythm and beat structure.
Thanks 🙏🏼 That means a lot to me to hear nice feedback like this. Appreciate it! I was just looking to add some more Tangos episodes as well, but let me know what you would find helpful so I can add consider it for new vids I’m working on.
I got my first guitar in 1961. I have since become a luthier and built a flamenco guitar some years ago but never played it or even did a final setup. A recent illness confined me to a room housing my guitar collection. I continued jazz from years back and joined the RUclips University flamenco curriculum. Thanks for your very very excellent teaching.
Thanks for sharing your story. Sorry to hear about your past illness, but glad you’re still able to learn from home on RUclips. Let me know what other type of lessons you’d like to see. Happy to try to add to my list…
Désolé pour ce qui est arrivé
Nice hypnotic little tango flamenco. Nicely explained too!
p.s. I just love that shirt! ❤🌹🌹🌹
Thanks! Hope it helped…and if you watch more of my vids, you’ll see I have a thing for flowery shirts 🌹 🙃 plus it matches the Flamenco aesthetic 😉
After finding your lessons, loving going through your art. There are no Spanish or flamenco teachers around, you are a godsend!
th
Thanks so much! I’m glad I can be of help.
Great video so clear and done just right. There’s no guessing. Hard to imagine it could be done better. Gracias amigo!
Thanks so much for the nice feedback! That’s always great to hear what went well and what didn’t. So I’m happy it helped you. Someone else was complaining that there’s no tabs. But as I told them, honestly learning flamenco rhythms is easiest by listening/watching and just repeating and slowing down the video. I learned these rhythms without tabs by sitting with teachers or in dance classes.
Glad that found this channel !!😊
Amazing lesson !!👏
Lots of love from INDIA 🇮🇳🧡💚
Thanks so much for the nice comment! That means a lot to me… 👍🏼
Thank u so much please continue to help us as a beaginer
Glad you found it helpful! And yes, will bring some new content soon…
Your lessons are very helpful to beginners like us ❤️❤️
Thank you! That’s my goal, to help break it down for beginners.
Good stuff man, the pace of instruction is, for me, just right. Nicely condensed into a small chunk, but plenty to work with. Gracias.
Awesome, thanks for the feedback! That’s exactly what I’m striving for in these videos. I need to add some more to the Tangos series.
Thank you so much for sharing these amazing playing!
Thanks for watching! Hope it helps out…
I have that shirt!! very helpful guitar lesson 🎸
It’s an awesome shirt! 👌🏼 You can see it in a couple other vids as well. Lol And glad the lesson was helpful!
I believe it these electric steel strings --! Should I replace them with Nylon --- ??much softer --my thumb and index finger=--are bleeding ?
Yes, for sure, for Flamenco right hand techniques, nylon strings is the traditional and ideal way to go. It will feel like the world of a difference if you’re trying them on steel strings. It’s possible, but especially the rasgueado strummings will feel much more comfortable on nylon.
Excellent as always!
Thanks man! 🙏🏼
What brand of guitar are you playing it sounds really good, is it the guitar or the mic making it sound so good, great teacher
Thanks, glad you appreciated the sound! Maybe it’s a combo of both. The guitar is a handmade professional level guitar from Hermanos Conde. So it’s a great guitar. Actually the mic isn’t too fancy, but in this video it is a nice Shure condenser recording mic. I might have added a little effects in my edit, when I’m playing the samples. But now a days I just use a camera shotgun mic to record my voice and guitar and I’m pretty happy with that as well.
Thank you for sharing, a lot of musicians don’t want to give their secrets! It is a nice looking guitar as well.
great video! thanks so much! can you also give the TAB or sheet (right hand and frets) for us beginners? sometimes it is hard to follow the quick movements in the video.
Thanks Kendo! I will keep that in mind when making the next ones or possibly adding to this one later on. Since it’s a little more time consuming I can’t always get to doing it. But I’ll try. Otherwise second best thing would be to slow down the video in RUclips settings for those sections you need to analyze. Cheers!
Great point
David, which model Focusrite are you using to record your audio and guitar? Thanks.
Hi Timothy! So for most of these videos, I’m actually just using a shotgun mic right above/in front of my head, and plugged into the camera. It picks up pretty well and saves me time in post editing. Then I just have to eq a bit and add a little effects in my editing. But I definitely use the Focuseite for my recordings. It’s just the simple two input model. I have to check to see which one I have. It’s great and does the job!
can you do a video on improvisation for Spanish guitar??
Hi, do you mean general improvisation/soloing over someone playing chords?
Hi David. Thanks for posting this video. I've been learning guitar, self taught, for a couple of years now. I'm a complete beginner with flamenco guitar. I.e., today is my first day. Can you please explain why you leave your right thumb on the lowest string?
Also, I usually use standard E tuning. What type of tuning does this lesson require?
Awesome, congrats on starting to learn! So I usually use the sixth string as a foundation to help stabilize my hand when doing certain rasgueados and rest stroke picking. It should always be lightly resting, not too much weight or pressure on it. It’s just part of the “Flamenco form” a lot of Flamencos utilize and it’s how I was taught. However, if I need to get that sixth string to ring, I just lightly rest the thumb again the sound board. That said, some players will break from the pack and say that having the thumb be free works better for them. So again, this is one of the most popular approaches, which I would suggest, but not the only way.
@@DavidChiriboga thank you so much for responding so promptly! You're answer makes sense. I'll give it a try but keep open to trying some other ways too.
hi bro can u help me
Is the
Valencia VC204
Valencia VC104
guitar good at playing the flamingo ?
I hope you reply to me quickly
I haven't bought it yet, waiting for your reply
Hi, so I’ve never tried a Valencia Guitar. I can’t speak specifically about those models. But they are standard nylon string guitars that would work for Flamenco. So yes they would work, but I can’t say if they are good or not. From what I found, they don’t have a tap plate/golpe plate. So either you’ll get a few dings on the wood when you start to play golpes, or you can add one later.
If it’s assessable for you, a great starter guitar is also the @cordoba Matiz Protege Guitar. They cost around $200. Something else to look into.
@@DavidChiriboga thx bro
Hello David, in the first variation you play quite upstrokes at the end of the bars but you dont count them loud with "and". What is right? The upstroke or the silent upbeat?
Hey! Playing upstroke/upbeat on the 4th beat of each measure would be more typical. Which is prob why I played it. If I didn’t count it out loud, it’s prob because I was trying to keep it simple as a basic starter version, (or I forgot to call it out loud lol)
When I do a closing of the compass groups, every four measures, then sometimes that one is doesn’t have that upbeat, to give it more closure. If that makes sense… I’ll have to rewatch the video in a moment to double check.
Oooo your videos quality is too good. Very nice........
Thanks so much! Appreciate that you notice the effort I put . And hope the lesson helped as well… 👍🏼
It's great 👏👏❤❤
Glad you found it helpful! 👍🏼
Maybe at 75 -- I am too old ---my right hand strumming after 40 years is appallingly bad ! --But thankyou for the inspiration --I will keep at it !
Never too old… if someone can start bodybuilding in their senior years(which I’ve seen), then learning or progressing in guitar should be possible too 😉 Honestly you might just have bad habits instilled after all these years, and the longer you added to that muscle memory, then the more work it is to change any habits and technique with new one. Just it’s just about being patient and very aware of what you want to change and not stay with the comfort of how you’ve played for years. And being open to changing up techniques and positioning.
Hi David,
Do you have any tabs for your videos?
Thank you
Hi Antonio, I’m sorry, I havnt made much tab for most of my videos. For things like this Tangos video, I personally havnt found tab helpful for rhythmic lessons. I have found it more helpful to listen and internalize the rhythms and learn it orally. But I know it may help others…
@@DavidChiriboga makes sense, I have found these videos very helpful myself. I appreciate your work.
Thanks so much
👍🏼
Hello how can we make our own falseta for tangos? I was just thinking there is many falseta tutorials and it has no particular tittles, so i assume falseta must be composed by the player
Great question/observation… So yes, many falsetas are traditional ones that don’t have an credit, that get passed around and evolved differently from every player. Sometimes they evolve into their own thing. But of course there’s also many falsetas that are from renown players in which the same happens as well. But generally yes, the idea is to try to create your own, at your own skill level when possible. The best way to do that is by playing traditional ones first that follow a typical structure and then try to get your own ideas or tweak those falsetas into your ideas. That’s the nice thing about Flamenco vs Classical. In Flamenco it’s appreciated when you take a traditional idea and arrange/evolve it into your own. I will try to add some videos on some traditional falsetas that would make a nice foundation to follow form.
@@DavidChiriboga thank u very much, now i can finally say im playing flamenco haha, ill be looking forward for the falseta, knowing the traditional is a big help in learning flamenco
this triplets are heavy
Hope it’s working out for you
Seems like swing feel
I think so

What's the tuning
Hi, it’s just standard tuning.
Sounds great --but those awkward chords and freaky complex rythyms are really scary and off putting ! Do u have any tab ? --I am useless at this --too complicated !
I’m sorry to hear it was a little too complicated for you. Honestly these Tangos lessons were a little more advanced than what I’m mainly doing on my channel, but still thought I’d share. My advice: Choose two new chords to work on and practice the transitions without the rhythm or anything else complicating it. Then try to tackle the first rhythm for a week or so. Unfortunately I don’t have tab. And honestly, for me personally, learning rhythms like these with tab is much more complicated than listening to the examples over and over and trying to emulate it. That’s I learned from the maestros in spain and in masterclass workshops with the greats…tabs are great to break down complicated falsetas and melodies though.
But don’t be discouraged, you just might not be at this point yet. And if you’re trying something you’re not ready for, on your own, it doesn’t feel discouraging.
What’s the name of that a chord?
Which one, the A variation? It’s probably the A b9 you’re asking about.
@@DavidChiriboga that’s the one yes 👍 thanks I thought it was called that but just wanted to check with the master haha
TABs Please. Even if is written. In a humble napkin with out note values, only numbers, is still helpful. Other channels use tabs. Others don't. Guess which channels viewers (customers) will prefer?
Thanks for your feedback and request. However that said, I don’t compare my channel to other channels. It’s hard enough to remain consistent on producing content, adding tabs isn’t an easy endeavor to add in all the time. One of the main reasons I didn’t add tab to this lesson is because very honestly, for me personally to learn Flamenco rhythms, it’s much better to watch/listen and learn a rhythm and strum and slow down video and repeat, than to try to read it off a paper. This is the way I learned them and internalized them, so I’m teaching them the same way.
I do want to eventually make an easy Flamenco Intro course for beginners which will include tabs for things like this lesson and more, but will have to be 2024. Sorry I can’t offer right now. But try to slow down the video and write out your own notes. That will help, I promise 👍🏼
The strumming with right hand is not that well explained for a true beginner i had to watch other videos to fully understand
Thanks for the feedback. So this video is meant for someone who already has those strums/rasgueados down. That’s why I provided links in the description to videos with complete breakdowns of the rasgueados. If I re-explained in this video; it would get too long for most viewers. Thanks, I’ll keep the feedback in mind for future vids though. (Maybe a quick recap of a technique before doing the lesson)
Your strumming is very impressive ---I tried --hopeless ----failure !
Thanks for the compliment, but I hate to hear you sounding down on yourself. Maybe this strumming is still a bit ahead of where you’re at and you need to hone in a bit more on the techniques first.. or just break these down and go ultra slow with them.
Sadly I have given up ---that right hand strumming is way too complicated---I am a luthier =electric guitar solos are easy --pentatonics I mastered 40 yrs ago --but this flamenco I strumming is too tricky
Don’t give up Carl! You got this, just go back to the basics, and refresh some of that techniques first. Or break it up into very small sections.
