quote:
My question is concerning descending arpeggios and whether or not it's a good idea to practise the full plant as is done with ascending arpeggios or use a sequential plant I have actually never seen anybody do it, though logically it could be done. Normal flamenco thing is to only full plant ima, and sequential plant ami or any weird combos, like iam, mia, etc etc. In the case of Gerardo Nuñez and some others, he NEVER full plants, even ima is done sequential and he was super fast when he was in top form. Remember, soundwise, a full plant will stop all 3 strings from ringing when you set it up, and that might not be desireable. Could be the reason why full plant did not evolve to be poplular for the other arps. Just a guess. Just an aside since you are into arps now. I recommend focus on the thumb when doing arps, if you can try to rest it when it plays to stablize the hand. Learning that early on is important for getting a good flamenco sound and feel to your arps IMO. Ricardo
