Flamenco

Learn Spanish Guitar Technique

The secrets of Flamenco have been hard to learn without personal lessons from an expert teacher, and such teachers are rare indeed outside Andalucia or Madrid. Yet nearly everyone who plays or wants to play Spanish guitar would like to learn at least something about how those exciting sounds of Flamenco are created. Here is the book, in one complete volume, in which a top-ranking flamenco soloist and recording artist reveals the very essence of the flamenco art of the guitar.

This is a superb collection of 8 original flamenco concert guitar solos and two exciting guitar quartets. The selections feature Juan Serrano's usual technical brilliance and capture the vitality, fire and haunting Moorish moods characteristic of flamenco music. All solos are in notation and tablature.
