sorin popovici -> RE: Solea rasgueados (Dec. 15 2005 0:18:10)

ok , my experience on e (dn) a(dn) m(dn) i(dn) i(up).
dont know the answer ,didnt get too much thought to this .I think my 5 stroke (eamii) rasgueados,are smth like a 3 2 ,e a m .. i i .I pause intentionally a little between the eam
and the ii,i didnt study like this ..just like to start the rasgueado slow and then the last i i strokes to do it fast(it's like i dont know ...smth like (what's the word) ritardando).
I guess that it's aplyable to tremolo and this is a good point ...probably this will be
what some call it "letting it breath" .
good continuous rasgueado would be nice too ...I mean two 5 stroke rasgueado without
feeling the interruptions between the first quintuplet and the second one would be cool too.
,I cant do this very properly ...cause I dont study this at the moment,but in the
Dennis Koster's "keys to flamenco" he says to practice like this :
Eam Iie Ami Iea Mii.So practice 3 five stroke rasgueado, like 5 three rasgueados(the
capitalized letters shows how the accents must be placed).This should help
u to be able to accentuate with every finger.I tried that and it is getting better,so
that's good advice to me.But there is another catch if u really want to have it
the sound continuous.
for example this solea example (the first bar of a soleares )

If u succeed to hit the strings like that ....he says u'll get
more continuous rasgueados.That's his advice and I believe him
but I also believe , u got to spend some time to polish this
rasgueado...and I dont wanna do that now.
