1st one:
short and sweet. the main falsetta part is all pulgar and legatto. some arpegio work in the remates. three finger rasgueados. lots of golpes.

i have tabs for all of these. each one progressively gets more difficult as they build on the previous one.

they sound a lot harder than they actually are. i think anybody can learn and play them within competition standards within a month.

some of them are long so we can always do a truncated version.

out of the ones i uploaded, i would vote for either the 1st or 5th one.



Ailsa -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 6 2009 14:09:35)

Wow thanks! Brilliant suggestions, but now we have to make a decision[&o]

I'd like to suggest the first part of number 3. I think is good because it has a lot of variety. But because it is quite long, we could just play the first half - up til 1.07.

Would that be OK with everyone? I think it would be a really useful bit of solea to have mastered.

OK fellow beginners, please let me know because we are going to start this weekend!

i hope i didn't make things difficult by uploading too many suggestions. it's like being at a restaurant and not knowing what to eat because the menu is the size of a dictionary.

(in my best waiter posture and voice:) fine choice, madam! will you be having wine this evening? [:D]

i'll post the tabs, slowed down version, notes, etc. if we end up using one of my suggestions.



Ruispelto -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 6 2009 14:28:18)

Yeah! Number 3 is, and half of it is enough, IMO.



andresito -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 6 2009 21:40:54)

Man, I'm so confused trying to follow which thread has the suggestions for the challenge and which has the uploads [&:] (1st beginners' challenge thread, another beginners' challenge thread, or beginners' solea challenge!) [:'(]
OK, so consensus is for the first half of #3?
These are from Gerhard G-M, correct? (I think that was mentioned in the other thread).
I think the thing I like about G G-M's exercises is that they are good, but don't sound TOO good, so it's not disheartening that you can't manage to sound like the recording (if you have a flamenco-enough sounding guitar).



aleksi -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 6 2009 22:29:58)

the 3th is ok for me,
it would be my first choice after merenque.



edguerin -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 6 2009 23:03:49)

I really like those pieces!

Independantly of the challenge: where can one get the tabs? where are they from?
Or are they you're own?



jonc -> RE: Beginners' Solea Challenge (Mar. 8 2009 15:26:48)

arash, i've found your advice very helpful over the past fifteen minutes. for a week or so now i've felt more like a classical guitarist playing out because my rasgueados lacked that oomph. i feel that i've finally got a grasp on the correct approach to this technique. thank you =]

i'm entirely with ruispelto inre horny.
