New apoyando/picado exercises that I hope it will be interesting to play. Sincerely speaking, I don't like exercises because they are mostly for technique and there is no music. I wanted to create exercises that would be interesting for me, the musical exercises. I am satisfied with this work - now I have more good exercises for myself and I share it with you. Each exercise is made like a cycle. You can practice some important technique elements - left hand transitions that are common in flamenco guitar music, with p/h/glissando. These patterns are also useful as guitar licks for flamenco fusion improvisation. Enjoy!

This is an arrangement for classical guitar in standard tuning. I included percussion effects to enhance the groove and the overall atmosphere of the music.

It is very exciting to play! Enjoy and please let me know If you have any questions. It would be my pleasure to help you out! Here is my E-mail: info@nikymusic.com .
