Today Flamenco Guitar Music has become one of the most characteristic sounds of any guitar style. Its popularity has moved beyond the world of traditional flamenco guitar music. The work of many renowned flamenco guitar virtuosos have influenced music throughout the world in a general sense.
In addition of the techniques common to classical guitar playing, flamenco guitar music is uniquely characterized by use of Golpes or percussive finger tapping on a tapping plate or golpeador, by picados with more attack and articulation, by rasgueados or flamenco guitar strumming, by alzapuas and different kinds of tremolos.
Rasgueados can be one of the most impressive parts of flamenco guitar music. Performed by outward individual flicks of the right hand fingers and done in a huge variety of ways, rasgueados creates a nice rhythmic roll, supporting the footwork of flamenco dancers. An alzapua uses the right hand thumb for both single-lines notes and strums across a number of strings. Both techniques are combined in a quick succession to give that unique percussive flamenco guitar sound.

Comment: No, I didn't missed it. I knew it. But I guess that most people remember "Mediterranean Sundance" from Friday Night in San Francisco concert.
