Polyphonic strumming

Polyphonic strumming is a Nuevo Flamenco and classical guitar technique allowing for two lines of music to be concurrently performed. While all varieties of strumming techniques allow for chord conveyance, only polyphonic strumming enables a simultaneous melody line carried out on the first, second, or both strings. The sounds produced are markedly polyphonic, giving the impression of multiple instrumentation.
