Hey Gounaro,
I believe that the most important in flamenco toque is the understanding of every basic . rythem and compas. For beginners like us, the technique, is essential and speed comes with time as soon as you play a clean piece. There are things that no book can teach to a flamenco student and you just have to see and hear to get it correctly. like the thumb for example when you MUST you apoyando cuz the sound is really different if it's not, or the tremolo that should be studied slowly so as to be gotten right. Then comes to normal question that every beginner make. '' How can i play a complete whole piece with no mistakes?! to answer this question i started ask myself more questions! like:
1- How many time i'm eager to dedicate to the guitar?
2- Do i track a blog for my progress as i do at the gym?!
3- Do i focus on the difficult things i know that i do bad?
4- What did i gain this week/ moth/ or YEAR?!
Aire is something that comes with experience, i asked Ramzi about this once and he replied '' It's years of continuos playing '' Even with the simplest guitar, he can make me feel ''Flamenco Aire in anything he produce'' and not to seem dull, my teacher told me not to loose the compas '' If i loose this on stage accompanying a singer i'm the one who screwed and putting time and effort to study a piece of an ideal that i admire is not a waste of time cuz every piece will be full of things to develop '' Alzapua, tremolo, arpeggios, scales, etc [:)]
