About / Biography

Spanish Flamenco Guitarist, Tomás provides a recital of high quality flamenco guitar solos

Tomás is much appreciated by people who have either heard authentic flamenco guitar playing while visiting Spain and/ or have attended flamenco concerts at professional theatres and concert halls.

His two major influences have been the great flamenco guitar masters Paco de Lucía (1947-2014. RIP) and Paco Peña. De Lucía because of his endless creative ability and Peña because of his communication of the deep emotion that is essential to flamenco.

Audiences familiar with the work of these masters recognise their influence in Tomás’s own playing.

Tomás also plays a number of the most popular and exciting Spanish Classical guitar pieces.

Potential clients are sometimes not sure if a piece is flamenco or Spanish classical.

If that is your case please do feel free to contact with any question that you may have. Of course, that is with absolutely no obligation.

It is useful for both client and performer to discuss as much as is needed prior to considering making a booking.
