Moloko -> How did Paco do that? (Jun. 6 2016 5:06:25)
Hi everyone, how are you doing?, my first post here, hope you can explain to me what is going on with the right hand of Paco, how does he do that... Heres the video: (min 5:49 - 6:10, not the scale, but the rasgueo, don't know if i can call it that)
I have a random question as well, did Paco ever played (and recorded) Barrio la Viña live?
Thanks folks!!! [:)][:)]

The rasgueado is done as triplets: a finger down, i down, i up....and the bass notes of the chords are targeted (as opposed to a full chord). He does the same type of rasgueado for the galloping first movement intro (targeting treble strings of course). This rasgueado is a nice substitute for the more common triplet rasgueado a i P, where the i up replaces the P up stroke due to the specific voicing of the chord you want to sound. It is also used for other galloping rhythms like fandango, Sevillanas, tangos, etc.
Barrio La Viña as a piece was not played live to my knowledge, but rather a fusion of both Barrio and the earlier Recuerdo a Patiño was adapted as late as 1981 before soon being replaced by La Barrosa. Here starting 1:35

I have one question about this. When you guys play A down I down P (or I) up rasgueado, do you move any of the fingers together with the wrist, or the movement comes completely from the wrist?

Very slowly, the P and I function together (imagine holding a pick) as IP...IP...IP...a swing rhythm with P on the beat but UP direction. That is driven by the wrist at whatever speed. The A finger needs to fill in the gap there to make a proper triplet (or whatever rhythm you need) while in the UP position, independently from wrist action. It seems weak as a stroke very slow. But when going fast, momentum lets the A finger sound equal to the other strokes, as it sort of becomes part of the downward mostion of the wrist. But it's better to at least THINK of it as independent of wrist stroke.
IAI makes no use of wrist movement as the thumb is typically anchored on the 6th string.
