The word "rasgueado" literally means "brushed" but we use the term "strummed". This lesson is a demonstration of the most basic rasgueado that you should learn. All 4 fingers e-a-m-i are used in this rasgueado, with the left hand forming an E Major chord./nFor folks trying a rasgueado for the first time, be warned, your fingers will NOT want to cooperate! Be patient and it will happen.
