Spanish Fandango lesson
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve updated this blog but lately I’ve been getting back into playing and I’ve found some great stuff that I want to share.
YouTube is an amazing resource for the novice guitar player. There are literally thousands of short lessons available. Spanish Fandango is a song that was popular in the late 1800s. It’s in Open G and was so popular that Open G became known as Spanish Tuning. If you’ve never played around with open tunings it’s a great place to start because it’s really easy to play. I think the open tunings are great to learn finger picking because you can practice your right hand without fretting with your left and it sounds nice.
Keni Lee Burgess breaks Spanish Fandango in three parts and does a great job of making it easy to digest for the novice player. The hardest part of this song is the picking pattern but you can practice that by playing the first 4 bars over and over.
This is a great first song to learn because its easy yet the finger picking makes it sound complex. Give it a try and upload your own video to YouTube!
