In the world of flamenco guitar playing, Juan Martin is a colossus, performing in a highly distinctive compositional style that sees him blending the traditional and the modern to excellent effect.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s flamenco or art or jazz,” explains Juan, “the fact is that there are certain things that touch people, that connect with them and which can move an audience. Even if you’re not playing at quite your best, it’s important to make that connection; to touch them so that they can go away with a memory to treasure.”
