Besides that you're a grrreat player, you are a really good teacher who is able to think with a student's mind, speak his language. Thanx a lot Kai.

Invaluable lessons for us who are guitar aficionados whether metal, blues and all around. I'm an accomplished rock guitarist but with your guidance I feel confident to sit in a circle of guitarreros and help out with rhythm. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge.

Hvala Kai. Pozdrav iz Beograda.

I have never felt so giddy with a lesson before. Thank you!

Superb instructional video. My hat goes off to you sir!

Thankyou for this lesson. So helpful.

I would like to express my gratitude and thank you a lot because I have just started studying Flamenco very seriously and your lessons are helping me a lot in getting the hang of the "mood", the feeling and the correct approach to learning right hand patterns and technique. Thanks a lot really, you are truly a wonderful teacher. ^_^ P.s.: Said by a teacher (but in a different field) who is also a "nerd" like you when it comes to music theory and chords. 😄

Great man!

Thanks so much Kai for posting these Flamenco tutorials!!! THEY ARE THE BEST!!!! Love your approach!!! The lessons are concise and easy-to-understand!! I play a little classical guitar, and the transition to Flamenco shouldn't be that difficult...since the fingers are kinda used to playing independently. What i have noticed, is that the TIMING is almost more important than the MUSIC!! You must be able to count!! And know where you are at all times! I guess that applies to music across the board... But in flamenco guitar and the techniques involved with playing this type of music, the timing HAS to be tight!!! Not mechanical, just on point!! I LOVE everything about the Flamenco culture! The people, the places, the emotions, and lifestyle! The FLAMENCO DANCERS are BEAUTIFUL!!! And filled with so much FIRE, PASSION, And SENSUALITY!! That in itself is motivation to practice! Once again we deeply appreciate you for helping us to learn something so beautiful as playing Flamenco guitar!!!

For the money that Yamaha tends to be a really good choice. If you can go to place that has one and make sure you like how it feels and how it sounds then that's a great option. (If you can't it's still a really good bet, but if you have the option and can choose one that's ideal) Cheer, Kai

For that first pattern/chords at 2:07 why is por meido have a "A major chord and not an A minor chord?" In A phyrgian wouldn't the first be a minor not major?

@FlamencoExplained

4 жыл бұрын

Armando Roman If it was regular Phrygian it would indeed be a m7 chord, but in flamenco the I chord is a Major triad with a b9. That’s what makes it sound so distinctive - minor (Phrygian) scale over a Major chord. Plus you get to play with both the natural and flatted 3rd scale degree, but always over a Major chord.

@@FlamencoExplained Thank you so much for replying! I thought I was going crazy, so it is altered. Do you have any videos of other adjustments done? So a normal phyrgian is (i-II-III-iv-v°-VI-vii). But a "flamenco phyrgian" is (I-II-III-iv-v°-VI-vii)?

@FlamencoExplained

@@armandoroman4049 I don't have videos on that yet, but I may do some more about this stuff. And yeah - normal Phrygian would harmonize like a Major scale starting from the third degree as you have above. 'Flamenco phrygian' is a I Major triad with that added b9, a II that's like a Lydian b7 sort of thing, a III that's Dominant but only functions as a normal Dominant occasionally (there's a moment in the singing when it does resolve down a fifth, but otherwise it functions more like the Dominants do in Blues) and a iv that's a minor 7. Beyond that things don't operate functionally as they do in Western music, so it gets a little weird to analyze... Maybe I do need to do a video on this!
