Thumb falseta
|
|
|
Well, I just ran into my first all thumb falseta played on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings only. I'm finding it kinda difficult playing on those strings with my thumb because I'm not used to it. I don't have a hard time playing thumb falsetas on the 4, 5, and 6 strings in tempo, but this one is a little hard because I'm used to playing 'i , m' on those strings. Does anyone have any advice or exercises for me to get used to playing on the 1, 2, 3, strings with my thumb. Tom, do you have any specific exercises on your site? Merle

AndyB, it is not an exercise, it's a fandango de huelva falseta, and I checked again to be sure, and it's all thumb. I have been practicing for the last few days, and I'm actually getting the hang of it. I can produce a louder 'punch' on that last part with my thumb, and I think that is why it is done that way. I'll try and record it a little later on, when I get more comfortable with it, but, it is a pretty falseta. Remember, this is only the last part of the complete falseta. Merle
