- My notes
The Granainas comes from the region of Granada in the south of Spain.
It is a free form and has no stricked tempo as you can play each part as you want, with your own feeling,but it has a 3/4 feel to it.
The backing track is just a rough tempo you can try once you know how to play all the parts.
Jump to start: Home or `s` , you can also click/tap the lesson part again (the numbers above player)
Go to next part: PageUP or End.
Volume: ArrowUp / ArrowDown keys
Go to any part: Number keys (combinations also possible)
Pause or play: `k` or space key
Fullscreen: `f`, esc to close
Increase / decrease speed : `+` or `-`
