RE: Flamenco exercises, theory, song... (in reply to edgar884)
Hola Edgar,
I've had alot of time to surf the web, and I've been to your site several times. I think I've seen all your videos, and have listened to most of the mp3. Very nice amigo! Thanks for sharing.

Edgar that doesn't quite apply to us all - but we can all try
Anyway thanks for the site. I've starting using some of the exercises (and there's other good stuff). Even when you have others it's nice to try something new that avoids boredom setting in.
Anyway if you (or anyone) don't mind a very basic question - take the first exercise F Major modes. I stop the 5/6th strings with i, a, e. The fourth string with i,m,e. Does it matter? Is there a correct way or is it just what comes easiest? Ta

Do you mean the left hand, you should play the scale with left hand (6th)string 1,2,4(5th)1,2,4 (4th)1,2,4(3rd)1,2,4(2nd)2,4 and(1st)1,2. Right hand should be done with Picado. You should experiment with other ways of playing scales.
I think thats what you were asking. laters.
