Hi all. I've been a member for a while, and have kept glimpsing here and around, but I've never posted anything so... I've recently got back into studying flamenco guitar, and want to make a bit of an effort. As a document of this I thought I'd start a video diary blog. I have various reasons for this, but from this forum's perspective I'd be really interested in any help towards improving my playing. More info on my project, and myself is here - https://ontheshouldersofgiants2017.wordpress.com/about/ And my first video post is here - https://ontheshouldersofgiants2017.wordpress.com/2017/02/17/catching-up/ In the end I'm really just wanting people to have a listen, as I'm struggling to find an audience around where I live. Thanks for any future advice, Fitz

Congrats on the first post [:)] Great that you've decided to dive back into flamenco. I listened to your vid. Good job on a difficult piece and nice little rumba afterwards. There'd be stuff to say but to focus just on one actionable thing I'd say: try to play some of the lower strings with your rasgueado. You seem to be only hitting the trebles. Of course in some cases you actually do want to focus on the trebles but even then it's nice to have at least some of the lower notes ring out. Anyways, just my two cents.

Thanks for your 2 cents Piwin, will definitely look at that! I guess this a position thing? Thanks again.

Hi again, just added another video in my diary series and didn't want to clutter the forum, so just adding a link here, thanks, Fitz https://ontheshouldersofgiants2017.wordpress.com/2017/02/23/catching-up-2-the-magpie-collection-samba-farruca/
