A few solos are included.

Video description: The P free stroke should be as loud as the P rest rest stroke although it will have a different tone quality. It is perhaps the easiest movement to learn with the right hand.
I may have mis-spoken at 1:08 in this video. What I meant to say is that all three P-joints extend together in the extension phase and flex together in flexion phase. The P middle joint doesn’t move much, but it does participate in both phases and is not static. To see all ten lessons, do a search for: classical guitar lessons murdick.
