Course Materials can be found here: https://flamencoexplained.com/tabs-and-notation/ Farruca Explained is an intermediate level course in which we cover what you need to know to start playing Farruca. We start out by looking at playing compás por Farruca, we look at some embellishments of the compás, and of course we then look at some fun falsetas. Because Farruca can be played in a wide range of tempos, even the more difficult falsetas can be learned and played at first at moderate tempos and sped up as technique improves.
A brief intro to what Farruca is all about, and a look at some of the chords and voicings we will be using in the course.
We look at where the chords go and a few different right-hand patterns, including some fun syncopated ones
We look at some common embellishments of the compás which can be used to make your Farruca playing more interesting.
