Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that in pretty much every piece ever written, from the elementary to the complex, there is always one or two measures that are noticably more difficult than the rest of the piece? Sometimes it is timing, sometimes fingering, it is there.
Yes, there is a small team of composers in Vienna whose job it is write impossible phrases in all keys. These are then circulated to composers worldwide for inclusion in their otherwise easy-to-play compositions in order to maintain their reputations as serious musicians..
Remember though, that this shouldn't be an issue in flamenco, where the concept of a composed piece that's set in stone is something of an anthema. If you can't play that 2%, change it for something you can play! As long as it fits compas-wise, thats all that counts.
I realise the attraction of learning a solo piece you really love, but it would be a mistake to approach flamenco the same way as classical guitar.
