Description

Here I am performing a simple Segovia scale. Two notes on the A string, 3 notes on the D string, 4notes on the G string, 3 notes on the B string, 3 notes on the E string. as I ascend, I change each string with a sweeping downstroke. This keeps my right hand, moving up and down. When I finish the ascent, the last note is played with the downstroke, but I don’t attempt to correct this, since it is free of any strings below it, and therefore I descend to the G string with an upstroke a reverse sweep if you will. When I reach the D string that has only three notes on it I do a pull off on the second note in this position is my right hand, so that it can transition to the a string without an interruption to the up down stroke. I am not sure if this is the correct way of doing things, but believe that it is. Your input is greatly appreciated.
