Learn About Flamenco Guitar Tremolos

Hi I'm Mario Amaya and on behalf of Expert Village in this segment I like to talk to you a little bit about flamenco tremolo. Well tremolo is a technique that uses bass notes played with the right hand thumb and treble notes played with the other fingers of the right hand. Often one treble note being repeated a number or times. Well 5 times like this, treble involves playing a 1 bass note followed by 4 treble notes so 5 notes in total per beat and so I'm playing 1 note with thumb, then I'm playing 1 note with the index finger, then ring finger, middle finger, and index finger again(playing guitar). That is the flamenco tremolo but sometimes it get more complicated and we change the tremolo note that we are playing within a beat like this(playing guitar). Please see the next segment where I talk about using Rasgueado in flamenco playing.
