Pasión Flamenco Duo - Flamenco Dancer and Guitarist

This brother and sister have been immersed in Flamenco from an early age, performing at family fiestas and gatherings at their home in Córdoba, Andalucía. They now both perform in Spain and the UK as well as running courses on flamenco dance and guitar accompaniment.

As well as their live shows and teaching, they have appeared on Meridien Television, BBC and Channel 4 as well as being filmed by Formula 1 to celebrate the Grand prix win by the Fernando Alonso.

The Guitarist has been playing the guitar since he was 8 years old, having studied primarily with his Uncle who is a professional flamenco guitarist now based in Barcelona. He plays regularly, accompanying dance classes for his sister but also has a thriving flamenco guitar school where students benefit from his deep understanding of Flamenco music by the individual classes and group workshops he runs.

He is in demand not only as an accomplished Flamenco guitarist but also as a writer and performer of Latin music of which he also has produced an album.
His compositions have been featured in the highly successful American cop series "The Shield" and in 2005, the BBC radio series "Musica sin Fronteras" (music without frontiers) dedicated a programme to his original music, featuring an in depth interview and 8 of his songs. The programme was broadcast throughout Latin America as well as in Europe and the UK.

Due to his wide knowledge and interest in other Latin and Hispanic musical genres, he was invited to host the 2006 Regent Street Festival, London. This required him to introduce and interview (in Spanish) dozens of musicians and artists to an audience of over 2000.
