One of the finest Spanish guitarists, about Spanish music and the importance of Flamenco.

Since his debut in Seville at the age of nine, José María Gallardo del Rey has achieved universal public and critical acclaim. As a mature artist with a profound affinity for all aspects of the guitar, he has become a leading authority on the instrument among conductors and players alike, and a soloist in great demand by orchestras throughout the world.

José María has two events programmed:

Classical & Jondo Concert

On February 27th at 6 pm

His development as a classical guitarist has been enriched by his intense relationship with the world of Flamenco. The fusion of both styles has created a unique way of playing and listening to Spanish music, and José Maria has made an indispensable contribution to projects like Pasión Espanola with Plácido Domingo (2008 Grammy Latino), Habanera Gipsy with Elina Garança (2010), Caprichos Líricos with Teresa Berganza, and in his role as director and artistic adviser to Paco de Lucía for the latter's Japanese début with the Concierto de Aranjuez in 1990.
