Hi Everybody:
I don't know what to say[&:][&:][&:] gulp[&:] but just thank you!!!!!!!.
You are to to kind, [:)][:)][:)].
I'm just another flamenco guitar fan, just that, trying to do the best that I can handle, and don't get me wrong, it takes a lot of things as you all know, I face the same problems as you all do allways: broken nails; finger pains; strings; lack of time; office allways banging on my spare time; not having material where to read so forcing me to use all ear and not writing down what it comes out when I learn a piece[:@].
One of the things I've learn is that it never ends, if you don't play at least some time a day, fingers begin to gain moisture, and in very little time you can't play.
I don't know, it's just the love to the instrument that drives me, and the need for it. I´ve been with the guitar for 28 years long. I still lack af to many things, even if you don't beleive me, I can't acompaing very well, It takes me a lot to acompany a dancer, nobody has ever tought me that, I 've been forced to make that out and I've never known if it was right.
What I can say that it takes more of dedication and efforts than even having the ability to do. I allways tell to my wife "why can't we exchange fingers, my fingers are fat and short, my wife has them thin and long, specially the tiny left finger is very short, but I need long scale guitars becouse they are fat. So there you know, playing is allways a challenge, every moment that a piece is being recreated.
Well folks the thing that I can point out is give all that you can to your love to the guitar -yes she is very very gelous- it's the real thing you must need besides having a teacher. Patience is also a must, is like good wines, you need to mature things: during devoloping technic, learning a pice, learning a single falseta; you have to dedicate time to only hear and get the sence of feeling and try to convey that on your playing.
Youn know, I allways learn full pieces -perhaps is a devietion from the real sence of flamenco- On that matter, I'm much more like a classical guitar player, that they only recreate and interpret the author of that piece. I allways forget falsetas -don't know why- perhaps is becose the way a learned the guitar from the begining.
Well folks Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! to all of you really and very humbelly!!!
