hey minord,
i like your enthusiasm.

for piano, maybe study some basic music theory. with music theory, you'll be able to construct your own chords and know what chords go with what note. with that knowledge, you can accompany yourself.
this site should get you started
http://www.musictheory.net/

for spanish, go to the library and get some children's books in spanish and a spanish-english dictionary. rent some films while you're at it. if you watch any english film, put the spanish subtitles on. it won't be accurate but it'll help.

the library is your friend. get some music theory books while you're there too. and maybe even some flamenco cd's!

thanks Leo,
I agree best way the library is our friend, bt im in an asian country , not a lot of flamenco here ! or English books.

bt the internet is cool, i just like throwing up some ideas at times, ill stick with a few Bach preludes (ok Just 1) and try to get it learnt , i am enjoy playing the flute too so thats cool.

rest from the old guitar a bit.
