Complete Tremolo Tutorial: Beginner & Intermediate
The Complete Tremolo Tutorial for Beginner & Intermediate Students. In this video I show 3 different trémolos: 1) the classical trémolo (4-note), 2) the flamenco trémolo (5-note), and 3) a popular 3-note trémolo.
This video is intended for beginner to intermediate students. All demonstrations break down the fundamental components and correct movements of this technique. I also included several exercises and practice strategies to help you improve correctly. Even though the exercises and demonstrations in this video are limited to the classical tremolo, you should also practice them using the flamenco tremolo and the three-note tremolo.
IMPORTANT: It is imperative that you work on this technique very slowly. Your initial goals should be to play this with minimal physical effort, relaxation, precision, and a good tone. Never push your tempo too soon. If you feel tense or make several mistakes, you need to reduce your tempo to correct your mistakes right away. Going too fast too soon could result in diminishing returns and injury.

It's crazy how much KZread has helped access to info. 15 years ago if i forgot something i d have to wait for next week's lesson to ask. Nowadays it takes 10 minutes to find a partiture, a tutorial, a guy to explain the necessary tech and probably a downloadable program to make you coffee so you can practice harder😂

Thanks Diego. That was clear, concise, to the point and very well done. Watching this took me from " I'll never be able to do that" to "Look Mom. I'm playing tremolo!" I think intimidation was my biggest roadblock to learning a cool new technique. As a side note I noticed that your chord diagram for Fmaj7(#11) doesn't match the TAB.

That’s awesome to hear Thomas! So glad to have helped. :) Thanks for letting me know about the chord diagram and the tab. I didn’t see that! Unfortunately, it’s too late for me to correct this one but I’ll make sure to triple check when I post the next video.

I know, it’s definitely a challenge. Please be patient with your progress. The thing that made the biggest difference for me and allowed me to progress the fastest was focusing on my relaxation. It really helped me to keep my hands and fingers as loose and light as possible. Same thing with the shoulders. The next thing is just to be as consistent in your practice as possible, but don’t overdo it. Small amounts of improvement overtime is all you need. I hope this helps!
Very long fingers, born to be excellent player

Finger size or length is not as important as you might think. Andres Segovia had fat stubby fingers. Conversely, KZread has tonnes of videos of tiny Asian virtuoso children playing classical guitar, and they're better than most of us! Work with what you got!

¡Qué bueno Diego! Excelente clase. Ya me suscribí. Yo tengo mis momentos, amo a la guitarra clásica pero nunca llego a ejecutar muy bien. Trabajo, familia, etc... Lo del trémolo es algo difícil para mi y algo a conquistar. Tienes, además, un excelente sonido. Aprovecho a consultar por las cuerdas que usas y su calibre. ¡Un abrazo grande desde Argentina!

Saludo Norberto! Muchas gracias! Me alegro mucho que el video te haya servido. Acerca de las cuerdas, utilizo la marca D’Addario, tensión media. Siempre compro mis bajos y agudos por separado: Bajos = SDN-3B y Agudos = CGN-3T. Las tengo en la tienda de mi página web por si las quieres comprar allí: www.diegoalonsomusic.com/store. Gracias de nuevo!

Something I'm finding crucial in getting tremelo down is having your nails properly shaped. If they are too rough, too long, or not angled correctly, it is next to impossible to make progress. There are a lot of videos on this, but I particularly like the explanation by Bradford Werner at the "This is Classical Guitar" channel. He also has a companion webpage detailing it. I've still got a long way to go with tremelo, but getting this right made a huge difference in my progress. Note - i tried posting this with links, but youtube doesn't seem to allow it. It should be easy enough to find though.
