Description
The music on this course includes simple arrangements of campanilleros, danza mora, peteneras, boleras and zapateado. The study material was selected for two reasons: firstly because all of these styles are in some way related to the current flamenco guitar repertoire, and secondly to compliment the techniques you will be learning. The lesson format is exactly the same as with the previous course (SG1).
