A friendly, unintimidating approach to Flemenco
This is a wonderful DVD to get a taste of some of the technical aspects of Flamenco in a very informal setting.

Charles Sedlak is not what you’d call a pedantic music instructor. He’s more like Arlo Guthrie showing you some licks in the back room after a set at the Berkeley Cafe. In this DVD Sedlak assumes you have the basics of the guitar figured out and just want to sound like a flamenco guitarist. He doesn’t dwell on the musical tradition behind flamenco, spend time teaching you all the forms, or hold forth on the nuances of technique.

He just shows you how to get the flamenco sound, while informally teaching you some cool sounding but easy to play pieces. And sometimes that’s all you want. Formal flamenco studies are slow going. Sedlak gets you to the payoff quickly, so you can sound like you halfway could actually BE a flamenco player, with just a few weeks of consistent practice.

There is much, much more to flamenco than Sedlak presents in this video course. But you’re more likely to stay motivated with this material, especially if you’re a begninning flamenco player, than if you take the long road of the flamenco purist. Even intermediate players will find some nifty secrets to add flair to their playing. And in contrast to the sometimes stupefying cadence of other flamenco teachers, Charles, with his long hair and wavy eyes, is wonderfully entertaining.

The instructional DVD is definitely helpful. It has a number of excellent right hand strumming & picking patterns. Don’t let the heavey metal appearance of Charles Sedlack fool you. The DVD is well suited to people like myself who have never played flamenco guitar. He does a good job breaking down the right hand patterns in to smaller segments so that any one can learn them with practice. He also slows them down so they are understandable.

A quick inexpensive intro to flemenco guitar
The instructor’s guitar technique is mediocre although what he teaches is within the grasp of an intermediate guitarist.

I purchased two other flamenco guiter programs from amazon that were rated 4 1/2 to 5 stars and they unfortunately were not good for beginners in flamenco. I am a seasoned guitar player and I had no idea what was being presented. I rented Charles Sedlak’s dvd and must say…it is a real easy approach to flamenco. So I purchased it her at amazon, which by the way offered the best price. In a matter of weeks, I was able to play like I had been playing for years. Best one out there! He breaks it down step by step and teaches you songs in the process….I give it 5 stars…

Flamenco made easy
I am not very fond of this DVD. You can learn some technical aspects of Rasgueos, but all the flamenco pieces of the DVD do not really sound like the soul of flamenco.
