Bulerias Explained - Level 1 - Alzapu...

Bulerias Explained - Level 2 - Arpegg...
This arpeggio falseta features some beautiful chords - and melodies within each chord - as well as some tricky syncopated anticipations of the downbeat of each phrase. You can also play the chord progression with rasgueados rather than arpeggios, or you can do both, as we do here.
