Cheo Hurtado Explains How to Start Off Towards Playing Soloist Pieces

According to Cheo Hurtado, we start off with fingerpicking one of the strings. Here is where you can choose any basic melody and play it along the F# string. This is the string which ‘sings’ when playing with the Cuatro. This is followed by playing with two strings, then three and then finally using the whole Cuatro. This is the method which is used towards building up towards playing as a soloist Cuatrista.
