Firmeza (Rainer Scheurenbrand) - Spanish Guitar Tutorial (Simple version), Tabs & Lyrics/chords chart for download (Patreon)

Last week's poll winner -

Firmeza (Rainer Scheurenbrand), requested by Astrid.

This was a really fun song to work on!

I made two different tutorials: The original (basic) version, and the solo guitar arrangement.

This is the basic version tutorial.

The solo guitar arrangement can be found here

Difficulty level: Intermediate

Great song to start learning Spanish guitar!

The song is challenging because of the fast chord changes and the fingerpicking pattern. This is a typical Spanish guitar pattern (P,m,a,m). Great way to strengthen your ring finger (a)

Tabs w. chord diagrams, and lyrics/chords chart are available for download.

Thanks Astrid for the great suggestion.

Learn Spanish guitar

Spanish guitar is fun to play. It combines proper guitar technique with a lot of emotion and feeling.

In private lessons, I often use Spanish guitar materials (also for beginners) to develop technique and feeling, by learning traditional Spanish guitar "etudes" (musical pieces written specifically for beginner guitarists).
