„His technique was flawless as he plucked and strummed, his guitar rumbling like an ocean and springing like steps on hot sand.“ STEFAN HOGAN/New York

Flaco grows up with flamenco,  jazz and traditional Roma music. The influences of these different styles are audible in his compositions, making his pieces truly unique. That uniqueness opens doors for Flaco towards the best ensembles and soloists of the present, ranging from baroque orchestra „L`Arpeggiata“, the Moscow Symphony Orchestra, Antonio Rey, to the „Janoska Ensemble“ and the most important concert halls worldwide. His concerts are broadcasted live on French national radio „Radio Culture France“ and TV station „TV2 France“and more.
Proof of his extraordinary talent follows in 2001 and 2004, when he reaches the final round of Spanish Flamenco guitar’s most important competition, the Concurso Nacional del Arte Flamenco de Cordoba and Barcelona.

“Among the guitarists who played, “el Flaco de Nerja” gave some interesting renditions on solo guitar, clearly much influenced by Vicente Amigo.”, Diario Cadiz

“the violin and flamenco guitar skills of Alessandro Tampieri and Flaco de Nerja respectively were conspicuously accomplished.” CHICHESTER OBSERVER

El Flaco  demonstrated incredible agility and precision on Sinceridad (Sincerity), a fast-paced piece built on a 12-count rhythm known as a bulería. His technique was flawless as he plucked and strummed, his guitar rumbling like an ocean and springing like steps on hot sand. Stefan Hogan
