Biography

This classical/flamenco guitarist is based in London, and available for concerts, weddings and functions.
Combined with his career as a concert recitalist in possession of an extensive musical repertoire spanning five centuries from the Renaissance through to the 20th century, he also enjoys the reputation of being a fine flamenco and jazz guitarist making him without doubt one of the most versatile guitarists in the UK.

Born in Canada to Portuguese parents, he studied guitar with renowned guitarists Norbert Kraft and Jeff McFadden and received his Bachelor of Music in Performance from the University of Toronto. He also studied jazz and flamenco guitar with Rob Bulger and Pepe Haro, respectively. Upon completing his studies, he moved to Europe and has been based in the London since 1998. As well as having given recitals throughout the UK, he has also performed in Canada, Portugal, Spain and Italy.

In early 2007, he was awarded a Fellowship of the Royal Schools of Music (FRSM) in Music Performance, one of the few guitarists to receive the coveted accolade.

Aside from his solo activity, he performs in a variety of ensemble settings from Guitar and Voice with mezzo-contralto Lisa Marie Fitzgerald to Guitar Duo with 9-String Terz guitarist Peter Rueffer. As a flamenco guitarist, he regularly performs with Steve Homes in the DeCasas Duo/Trio and has many original flamenco compositions to his name.

He has recorded two CDs to date. His first, “20th Century Guitar” (2005) was received to high acclaim and features some of the finest repertoire of the 20th century. His second solo release ´Iberian & Latin American Guitar Music´ was released in 2008. Future recordings include a CD devoted to guitar music from the 16th to 19th century as well as a flamenco CD of his original compositions.
