José Luis de la Paz Trío: Saturday, February 27th at MDCA
Join Miami-Dade County Auditorium (MDCA) on Saturday, February 27th for an unforgettable night of classic Flamenco under the stars. José Luis, composer, virtuoso and performer, returns to the stage with some of his latest compositions in a Trio concert, accompanied by masterful flutist Magela Herrera, super percussionist Adolfo Herrera, and Spanish bailaora Irene “La Chiqui.”
José Luis' profound knowledge of the roots combined with the desire for research and experimentation gives him a powerful potential to be considered as one of the best guitarists of today. Musical director for the Ballet Cristina Hoyos for ten years, he accompanied numerous Flamenco singers and dancers. He appeared in Felix Grande’s book “Agenda Flamenca” (1995) as one of the best flamenco guitarists of his generation. In 2015 he premiered Avalon, his first Symphonic Work for Guitar and Orchestra. From 2015-16 participated in Amor Brujo by LA Phil and G. Dudamel with artistic direction by Siudy Garrido, and Concierto de Aranjuez (Rodrigo) with Des Moines Symphony and was nominated for the US Artist Fellowship.
