It includes a visit to the workshops of Manuel Contreras II and Ars Antiqva, Jose Angel Espejo's workshop, followed by a detailed analysis of the factors that contribute to the proper development of classical guitar technique. The DVD covers everything from the seat, the position of the body, and the devices used to improve it Aguado's machine , Sor's support system, the foot-rest, attachments, and an ingenious, simple and practical system created by the author, to the mechanical workings of the hand, its main ways of gripping, and the problems posed by the ring finger. All of these topics are approached through the scientific reasoning of the author, backed up by his knowledge as a doctor. As Jorge Cardoso says in the introduction, this course can be useful both to beginners and to more advanced players. . . it can be useful to anyone who plays a plucked stringed instrument. It includes basic demonstrations and explanations about how the hands work from the moment they are placed on the guitar, as well as exercises and concert pieces of the highest level. There is a discussion of strumming technique, of toque mixto and four complete pieces interpreted by the author. The course will also be useful for electric guitarists and others who have focused on the use of the pick and have neglected other essential guitar techniques  Tecnica Men's Cyclone Low GTX Xcr Outdoor Hiker,Wood/Orange,9 M $129.95 Nice looking, waterproof shoe. Comfortable enough for a short walk or just hacking around. The problem is, for any kind of a real walk or hike, just not enough cushioning in the sole for me. Anytime I've worn these for more than 3 miles or so, I regret it.  Tecnica Men's Cyclone Mid GTX Xcr Outdoor Hiker,Wood/Orange,7.5 M $144.95 These shoes were cheap and proved to be better than most my companions boots that were priced in the hundreds of dollars. I trekked the north Georgia mountains for 6 days straight in almost constant rain and fog. They stayed dry at least the first two days but even when wet they were not waterlogged. They were great on the rocky slopes and I never had a problem with blisters, callouses or slipping on the wet rocks. The sizing is true to its word, but the one thing I would recommend is a insole for buyers that have an arched foot. I have no arch and these shoes were perfect because they are absolutely flat on the sole. Other than that they were amazing shoes and I have never been so happy with a pair of hiking boots! |
