Start With Flamenco or An "Easier" Style? you don't even need "3 chords" to play flamenco, you only need 2! what could be easier?[:D] quote:
is the Phrygian scale and Western scale confusing to those who learn both? no, if by "western scale" you mean major or minor scale, they are used in flamenco too (eg. alegrias, farruca), so you will learn major, minor and Phrygian, though Phrygian is arguably more important. I played guitar for 10 years before flamenco, which I've played for at least 20 years. The things I did before flamenco, when I was younger, are the things I am probably best at in flamenco (in terms of technique), which also means that the things I didn't do are now my weaker points (technically).... some things are transferable, but the things you don't do you can't transfer.... so it's better from that point of view to start with flamenco if that's what you want to play. Secondly it's better to go with what you want, so if you want to learn flamenco, there's no point learning something else "first" that you don't really want to do.... just go for what you want. good luck![:)]
