Compás: is a repetitive section of a given dance that sequences itself by only a few bars, which gets its character and uniqueness from its own chord progressions and rhythmic characterizations.
The ones studied here are not all the compasses there are in flamenco. They are:
MALAGUEÑA, RUMBA, SEVILLANAS, FARRUCA, SOLEARES, BULERIAS, ALEGRIAS, FANDANGOS DE HUELVA, GUAJIRAS AND SEGUIRIYAS.
Falseta: a melodic statement that is plugged into the compas. They can be improvised, composed by the own guitarist, or they can be used as a quotation from another. Falsetas are only credible if composed with stylistic appropriateness to the compás in question.
Coplas: a folk melodic treatment is included within the compás.
Rasgueado: multiple finger strokes; Marote rasgueado: multiple finger strokes with the aid of thumb.
Arpeggios: (ascending, descending and combined) fingerpicking applications; “Arpeggios por Farruca...”
Golpe: stroke with fingernail on the top of guitar as strings are strummed, or played singly.
Golpeador: the invisible protection against golpes, which is glued above the top of the guitar.
Ligados: slurred notes by means of hammer-ons or pull-offs.
Disjunct lines: lines which are built skip-wise rather than step-wise or scale-wise.
Apagados: the technique of muting the strings after a stately strum, either with the palm of the right hand or the left hand's little finger.
Alzapúa: multiple and brisk ‘thumb only’ strokes in an upward and downward motion that are used to create high rhythmic excitement in a given passage.
Picado: the way in which melodies are performed in flamenco. It is similar to the ‘rest stroke’ used in classical guitar.
One Octave: the first eight notes in a scale that can begin on any scale degree.
Tremolo: the device used in guitar execution to sustain notes as if played by a bowed or wind instrument. All fingers are required to perform the tremolo: p, i, a, m.
Ayudado: translation; "helped." Performing melodic thumb duties with the middle finger resting on the B string.
Salidas: the closing last bars of either an entire dance or just a smaller section.
Silencio: slower and somber passage within the context of the Alegrias.
Escobillas: another passage within the context of the Alegrias that features foot work.

"I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!

"With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg

Member Comments about this Lesson
Discussions with our instructors are just one of the many benefits of becoming a member of JamPlay.Using the Soleares with the different strumming techniques was extremely helpful in expanding to the varieties of flamingo. It also provides a basis for experimentation from my varied studies to use. I feel your structure has a solid base to grow and create. Thank you!! and Gracias amigo!
Mario, I appreciate you using a starting foundation with the Soleares.
Dear Mario, Good lessons. Are you also planning to put some songs like the on in "Ciclone, Il, (The Cyclone) (1996)" and a famous actor played a song on guitar whihc also turns into a gun but cannot remember his name (relatively new movie) Regards Rama
