vigrond -> Very difficult chord... (A#(#5)?) (Nov. 30 2010 3:20:25)
|
Hi all, I am new here, and just learning Flamenco. I am studying a Solo por Bulerias in Keys to Flamenco Guitar by Dennis Koster (p.102) In the beginning, he starts off with a difficult chord. I was shown the fingering by one of my guitar teachers, but it is very stressful and seemingly anatomically damaging. Here is the chord: E - B 3 G 3 D 0 A 4 E - fingering: - 4 3 - 2 - ( little finger, anular, medio) When I attempt to reach over my medio to the C# on the A string, my anular/little finger pretty much collapse like dominos onto the fretboard, or are forced to slide past the 3rd fret. Neither which action assists the medio finger from reaching far enough toward the 4th fret to make a clear sound (my maximum reach seems to be on the 3rd fret, or a little after, which makes a not-so-good-sounding buzz sound). I am a person who enjoys thinking technically and what is the 'most' anatomically correct way to do something. So, if you are very familiar with this chord and had/has as much difficulty as I, I would appreciate any tips so my fingers don't look like Z's : )
