Charles Sedlak is not what a music teacher pedantic known. He is more like Arlo Guthrie show you some licks in the back room, after a preset coffee Berkeley. In this DVD Sedlak assumed that the basics understood the guitar and would just like a flamenco guitar sound. He will not dwell on the musical tradition behind flamenco, spend time teaching you will find all forms, or hold back on nuances of the art.
It is shown how to get the sound of flamenco, while teaching informally some sound cool, but easy to play pieces. And sometimes that’s all what you want. formal studies of flamenco is to go slow. Sedlak is the payment quickly, as it may sound, half-way could be in fact a flamenco player, with only a few weeks of consistent practice.
It is much, much more than Sedlak Flamenco shows in this video course. But you’re more likely to stay motivated with this material, especially if you are a player Flamenco begninning that if the road along the purist flamenco. Even the advanced player you can find some way to add subtle secrets of their game. And in contrast to the pace at times amazing flamenco other teachers, Charles, with his long wavy hair and eyes, is wonderfully funny.

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.

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. . .

This DVD is clearly not intended for someone who has never played the guitar before (although you can download a PDF from the website that explains chords, TAB, and other annotations). The author moves quickly and assumes you know your way around a guitar and playing chords. He spends his time where he should, which is on the specifics of the Flamenco technique that are different from standard guitar playing.
If you already play guitar of some sort and want a quick way to add a little Flamenco to your repertoire, then this DVD is for you. He goes through several basic Flamenco strumming and picking patterns and through a couple of complete songs. The TAB for the songs is available on the website (password comes with the DVD). This is all many of us want (including myself) and I was very pleased with the DVD. However, if you want a very thorough and methodical Flamenco instruction manual, this is not for you.

The instructor’s guitar technique is mediocre although what he teaches is within the grasp of an intermediate guitarist. There are better, more costly DVD’s by more skilled guitarists. I bought Aaron Gilmartin’s Learn to Play Flamenco Guitar and that double DVD provides a lot more information and lessons (at over 3 times the price). Flamenco guitar involves advanced strumming and picking techniques. I would not recommend flamenco guitar to a novice guitarist regardless of who the instructor is. For those who have no trouble landing fingers properly on all the primary chords without looking, then you are ready to focus on the unique strumming/picking techniques of flamenco.
I would like to add that the guitar is not an ideal solo instrument. Most songs need a background rhythm, beat or vocals. Flamenco guitar sounds great all by itself. It is well worth the effort to learn.
