    Best channel I’ve found for learning nylon string Spanish style. Thank you for all of your effort!

    Thank you for putting together such a literate and detailed lesson on this beautiful song. Mexican Bolero is one of the greatest songbooks, and the style is full of great singers and guitar players, e.g. Los Tres Ases.

    I concur. Álvaro Carrillo was a genius. "Se te olvida" is just as good.

    So happy to have discovered your channel!
    Your direct approach combined with only the notation necessary to explain a phrase works so well for me. The way you describe these basic rhythms is so easy for me to assimilate. Wish I'd seen your stuff in the 60's when I began, haha.
    Thanks to you I have found some clarity and understanding of the subtle differences between styles.

    Beautiful Bolero Scott and I agree about it having some interesting chords and I also agree about 'Autumn Leaves' too and how our ears like that particular pattern you mentioned. Nice video! 👍😎

    Once I was talking with two fellow guitarists, another Mexican and an Uruguayan, about how a book called "Los 100 mejores boleros" ("The best 100 boleros", which despite the name includes also rancheras, tangos and some other non strictly bolero songs) by Marco Antonio Delgado Blanco (@kalinchita here in TH-cam, a Peruvian music teacher living in Colombia) became a sort of standards' list for the first generations of Hispanic American guitarists with widespread access to the internet (the pdf is to date widely circulated, along with another one called "Las 100 mejores rockas" with standard rock songs in Spanish).
    Widely known jazz standards like Autumn Leaves or Taking the A train, are frequently unknown here, but I don't think there's across Hispanic America a nylon-string guitarist with the minimal repertoire that doesn't know at least a simple version of these songs like Sabor a mí or Historia de un amor (not to say more solid examples like Quizás, quizás, quizás).
    Curiously enough, from my own experience and opinion I find that steel-string guitarists have sometimes other, more variable, standards. But for nylon guitar I would say confidently thay many of these boleros (which outside the strict musical sense is a general word for "an old song") are our standards, not of Spanish guitar (which includes Spain) nor of Latin American guitar (which includes Brazil) but of Hispanic American guitar, as little the tag could matter.
    Pd. Good tutorial, btw, I just got excited with the explanation as I kept writing.

    I like a guitar with C for the higher notes. Which is this one? Or is a normal guitar also well enough? Please, what is your advice. Do I buy an extra C guitar?

    • @TheVersatileGuitarist
      @TheVersatileGuitarist  ปีที่แล้ว

      This is just a normal guitar in standard tuning

      @@TheVersatileGuitarist thank you. And what about the cutaway, is that necessary for playing the pieces?

    Is the support thingie for left leg to push guitar and neck up reasonable for flamenco playing? Im struggling with all the classic positions. Don't feel them. I like when neck is pushed up. Kind of like the position when guitars bottom sits on the right lap and you have to hold neck with left hand while feet are both flat on the ground. I like this position but holding the neck is annoying for long term, especially for picado.

    what is the songs name?

  • @dancole298

    Your arrangement is nice but too difficult for me because it' is too hard to read the music way up the neck. I play it in the key of C and it is much easier and just as beautiful. Check my version out here on TH-cam
