Hi Ramon, first of all it is Bb you are looking for. Second, the "flamenco" version just has some open strings ringing so look for Bb#11, or Bb6#11, Bb9#11, etc, and you will find variations all over the neck. But, again, why do you want that? Why not learn the "flamenco" fingerings, since that is good enough for flamenco. The special flamenco chords are ideomatic for the instrument, but learning all the variations on the neck is more for jazz and transposing to different tonalities. What sounds "flamenco" about a chord or progression, is the way it is fingered. Alot of the "wrong" harmonic notes, are simply the result of employing open strings against fretted notes. It is not meant to be a part of the harmonic anaysis where one would want to harmonize the thing all over the neck. "Flamenco Bb" E--1--0--0--0--0--0--5--0--5--0-------0-- There are others... B--3--3--3--3--3--1--3--3--5--6------11-- G--3--3--3--3--3--1--3--3--7--7--7--10-- D--3--3--3--0--0--0--3--7--8--8--0---8--- A---------1--1--1--1--0-----5--0--8-------- E----------------1--1---------6-----6--10--- quote:
If it just a chord book it wouldnt help me much the progrsssions via the style would be more helpful thanks. There is a HUGE tab book w/ falsetas and fingerings. The chord book (2 books come w/ the vid) is useful if you are a guitarist who can read a chart, and already understands the rhythm of the flamenco forms. Like, you know the compas already, but want to understand the song structure (harmonic progression) of both popular and some obscure cantes. It is a good reference. You can get it from anyone selling Encuentro vids, such as Flamenco World or Flamencoconnection. Ricardo
