What we often hear about flamenco guitar:

It’s very technical

Indeed, it is a technical style. But with patience and perseverance, some styles like rasgueado can be very satisfying to achieve.

It brings back the sun

Yes, of course, flamenco means Spain, and Spain means sunshine! The warm and typical sound of a flamenco guitar plays there a lot.

It’s enchanting

When you play with 100% concentration, you enter a state of “flow” and you can play for hours without realizing it.

It’s rich

Absolutely! Rich in flamenco styles called “Palos”, rich in culture, and rich in emotions!

Fell into the flamenco guitar in 2016

It was Christmas in 2016. I was 17 years old and my grandparents offered me a surprise gift: a classical guitar!

To learn the guitar, I searched for online lessons on YouTube and stumbled upon this video. I discovered the rumba compas and it was one of the first things I learned with my guitar. Then I discovered, logically, the flamenco guitar.
