Stoney -> Gerardo Nuñez Instructional DVD (Jan. 26 2010 12:44:20)

I have just had the pleasure of seeing the Gerardo Nuñez instructional video. I was completely blown out of my socks. Here´s the kicker - I´m sure a few folks around here may fall off their chairs when I say this too but ......(wait for it) ....... after see him explain his technique, particularly his rasgueados, I could easily see myself adopting a more modern approach. Yes, I am a huge believer in maintaining the Traditional Flamenco but I know when to admit defeat. (I'll never give up traditional falseta but....) For example, his 3 stroke rasgueado is brilliant. The same with the 4 stroke, the rolling 3 stroke etc. etc. His picado is just amazing too. He uses all fingers in all combinations. I have been meaning to post some questions about how to fix my right hand positioning problems - he answered all my questions in his demo. This is about to become my bible. I can't speak highly enough about it. The Tomatito instructional vid, which I love to watch but can't play squat from is great, but this one may be even better. This also has something for everyone, even a beginner could get a lot out of it and avoid all those typical mistakes and bad habits many of us enevitably develop. Unfortunalely, it's all in Spanish. Then again, for those who don't spake the language, it might be easier and quicker to just learn Spanish and then watch it than to learn the wrong way from some other method. AMAZING. Stoney
