[E] Hi, my name is Juan Benavides and this lesson
It's about what we call in flamenco and classical music picado, it's a rest stroke
it's usually a two finger stroke with your index and middle finger and
They call it rest stroke because every time you use
Any of the fingers you will rest on the adjacent string
Like
[Am] usually the finger will hit the nail but first
Will anchor itself into the meat of the finger [E] and then release
The force comes from the articulation of the finger
We're going to try to do the least amount of movement in order to not lose our axis
Usually I rest my thumb on
the E string
Of course when we're going up we [G]
[A] [E] follow through and
[B] Without changing the axis of the hand [E]
[A] as such [Bm] of [Am] course one of the ways to incorporate this is this type of
Technique is
For example when you're arpeggiating and then you want to do a run for example
[Dm] [A]
[Ab]
[Dm] [A]
It can be [E] done by itself too
[Am]
[E] To become fluid with this technique, there is a certain
There's there is a certain learning curve [Abm] and
One good exercise would be to
make sure that you
[Ab] [Bb] Have independent [Ab] movement of the finger until you can gather speed
[Abm] You can do like chromatic scales
[F] and apply the [G] Knee
[Ab] although all the way down the neck and
[Am] [Fm]
[E] Making sure always that the power is drawn from actually the finger
Closing so not forcing it.
Also.
There is a force that pushes down before he releases so
Such so when you do the exercise slow
Dampening the string so you understand exactly where the finger is at all times
[Gb] I hope this helps you with this technique.
I want to leave you with a little
Fragment for a
future lesson where you incorporate picado and a little bit of the arpeggiation
technique
