Everything You Need To Know To Play the Gipsy Kings Rumba - Guitar Tutorial

Музыка

Learn the 3 secrets to nylon guitar with my FREE workshop ▶ t.ly/oeax
In this video lesson, I show you how to play the rumba rhythm pattern you hear in almost every Gipsy Kings song. This rumba is easy to play if you follow the 3 steps I outline in this video. I discuss how you should strum a rumba in general, how to count it, what fingers we can use, I show you 2 ways to slap or create a percussive effect, and give you the chord progression to the song "Pharaon" so that you can practice this rumba pattern with the Gipsy Kings. I also show you other pop songs that can easily be played using this same rhythm.

    I’m very interested in the Brazilian Bossa form, but when I look on your site I don’t see any bossa nova courses. Which one covers in depth what is introduced in this video? I’m willing to join, but I want to focus on bossa nova. Thanks

    In my membership I have some bossa material and some Bossa solo arrangements as well, but if you’re really into that you should sit tight until I release the second volume of my ultimate nylon string guitar guide which will focus extensively on the bossa nova beat (volume one teaches you all the nylon techniques and ends with an entire module on how to play the rumba… Which sets you up rhythmically for bossa nova in my opinion.

    That is basically the pattern that I show at 1:40 here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZqGlqqmzo7PMlJc.html … the difference is instead of slapping on the third beat, he is quickly silencing the strings just before the third beat.
