Ha! I just received it in the mail 10 minutes ago! I'll let you know what I think later tonight.

By the way, I bought it on ebay for $22 USD including delivery, far cheaper than anywhere else.

I have them all. They are a great resource in my opinion. It's basically a bunch of falsetas and compases that progress from easy to advanced with video clips to view how to execute. Modern sounding material.

It's pretty much like this... find the a falseta that you like and learn it to add to your song.

I've got the Buleria and Solea DVD's. They're pretty good. It doesn't really teach you anything as such but will increase your (musical) vocabulary.

I've left mine on the shelf while I rework the basics. I'll go back to them later this year.

Yeah I was looking at his stuff earlier and I think I like his style and all, just to check it out I was happy to find something about him on here....
So in the end I have ordered the 3 DVD set ( a xmass present to myself) and look forward to working through it ,,,
