Paco Peña Saturday, February 2, 2013
“Mr. Peña is a genuine virtuoso, capable of dazzling an audience with technical abilities beyond the frets of mortal man. He combines rapid-fire flourishes with a colorist’s sense of shading; the listener cannot recall hearing any guitarist with more assured mastery of his instrument.” -The New York Times

“If you only ever see flamenco once in your life, make it this!”
-INDEPENDENT on SUNDAY, London
“Peña;s technique was flawless, from silky tremolos to fiery strummed rasguedos.” -Los Angeles Times
“…certainly the most satisfying flamenco concert this reviewer has heard. Mr. Peña’s approach is vibrant and full bodies, and he makes effective use of the guitar’s tactile qualities – whether the rapid, machine-gun like flourishes that blast from his instrument, or the soft shading he etches with intricate delicacy…” -The New York Times
“As the show progresses through exquisite solos, ensembles and duets…the elements fuse before our very eyes and ears. (T)he push-mepull-you crossover continues through a free-spirited battle of musical wills to climax in a concussive orgy of music and dance that threatens to blow the roof off the auditorium. A fantastic night.” -DAILY EXPRESS, London
