### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    It is a good place to start
  

*by N***L on Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2015*

My first book for flamenco guitar. It is a good place to start, but it is definitely Juan Serrano's flavor of flamenco. Interesting for his style of rasgueo.

    Great introduction to Flamenco
  

*by N***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2010*

I can't say that I have any more experience with Flamenco than listening to they Gypsy Kings and seeing one or two players in late night venues in South Beach (I do have a few years of experience with acoustic guitar and finger picking).  I can say that this book is a good introduction into the amateur Flamenco world.The book begins with some basics on how to hold your hand and how to read the music.  Each picking finger is associated with a letter in PIMAS and your left fretting hand also has instructions as to what fingers you need to use. It gives a brief explanation of how to strum eighth note chords - something that all Flamenco players must know and probably the hardest part when starting Flamenco.  Others have said it is better to see in action but you can check youtube out for that.After the basics and some scales and chords to follow along with, you get into several short songs written in different styles of Flamenco.  The songs are written in tab as well as standard notation.  They are also gradually increasing in difficulty.  I find myself starting from the beginning of these songs and just working my way through until I realize that my technique is too far gone to really be improving my skills, then I go back to the start.  After playing for a few months, you should have learned some of the scales and chords through repetition.  Then you can begin to "fake" play Flamenco, a highly enjoyable experience I can only liken to playing the blues but not needing the accompanying rhythm guitar.Overall, the book is definitely not going to make you a master; but, the book can provide years of entertainment that will result in a steady improvement of your Flamenco guitar experience.  I heard there is another "Juan" out there with a similar book/video that is better but... I am satisfied with how quickly Juan Serrano entered me into the world of amateur Flamenco guitar.Randall

    Older book, not for beginner
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2010*

It may be my bad, my lack of doing enough research before ordering this book, but it is an older book and definitely not for the beginner.  Bought this for my husband who is re-learning guitar and wants to learn flamenco.  This book is a little too much to start.  Although, Mel Bay does awesome teaching books, best around.  Most of his books are very user friendly and easy to understand with illistrations and common-sense explanations.  Many also come with CD's and/or DVD's to compliment the book, which is so great.  So not a bash on Mel Bay books in general.  Just an older, more advanced book than I thought it would be.  Probably my bad.
