In response to a request from Rand, I have transcribed two tientos falsetas that I have previously recorded. They can be found on this pdf file:
These falsetas can be found at the following locations in the recording: 1.44 minutes, 2.15 minutes and 2.35 minutes.
This tientos also features some falsetas from Manuel Granados’ incredible “Manual Didáctico de la Guitarra Flamenca”.
Overall, I am quite pleased with this draft – although there is still plenty of things to improve… as always

Hello Miguel, I have just discovered your site. I love music can’t get enough of flamenco. I have been working hard to understand scales. I wanted to say that I appreciate so much your sharing of your knowledge in your musical journey. I like your playing which I just heard of Tientos and the improvisation on Tangos. I hope to be able to learn to play the basic compass of the flamenco forms and to be able to improv as you are doing within the scales. I hope to obtain or download some good flamenco rythem back tracks which I can learn to play along with and to help me with the all important factor of playing within the compass. Do you have any suggestions of a good source for back tracks?
Thank you for so generously sharing your music as I live in the south east interior mountains of British Columbia (500 miles from Vancouver) and when I rarely get there can’t afford much in the way of lessons. I am very happy that I have found your site. I needed to reconnect with my flamenco roots in music and you have provided inspiration for me to do so.
Late autumn greetings, Robin Sherrod, New Denver, BC. Canada.
