minordjango -> tremlo habits !!! 3 or 4 ? (Sep. 14 2009 5:25:35)

hey folks ,

MY 3 pami (classical) tremolo is average but i haven't even bothered with Flamenco tremlo, what exercises helped you previous classical guitarsist to convert to flamenco .

for interests(To flamenco purists ) serranito (See alain faucher transcription Guijira classical style) i thought that was cool.

anyhelp , and also what were your first tremlo pieces to learn (falsetas on flamenco ??

Work on a lot of pami or just ami arpegios, and after a lot of that you will notice improvements in tremolo too, which is a similar technique. Tremolo is like a certain arp pattern, but the fingers play on just one string, so your timing has to be more precise.

If you plan on continuing to play classical tremolo and also learn flamenco tremolo,
You need to at least practice both for equal amounts of time. You may want to
even practice more flamenco tremolo at first.

Also- Id advise against using the same material with both tremolos. That may mess up your muscle memory.

Good question.

Is there a difference in playing the tremolo playing on the E or B string?
I notice when playing on the E string there is lots of room for swinging the fingers, but playing it on the B string doesn't work, because they get entangled in the E-string again.

There's no trick to learning this or most other techniques. Slow practice with a metronome to keep the rhythm steady is the way to go. There is no shortcut for this. Even the masters learned it by repetition. They just didn't have to repeat it as many times as we mere mortals do.

A lot of practice...and then you practice some more! One thing that I did which helped me out a lot was to spend abut a week playing tremolo on just the bottom E - p iami. Try and get a nice smooth sound and notice the angel of attack, play with your hand position, thumb position, really get a feel for what works best and keep your movements short. When you start to feel like you have a good tremolo, then move up a string and start over. One of the most important things that I was taught when learning arpeggios and tremolo was to watch the dynamics of the hand; what that means is that your wrist and fingers should not change position or angle if you are playing different strings. Move your whole forearm, but keep your hand in the same position, preferably perpendicular to the strings. Get yourself a mirror and practice watching your hand. Hope this helps
