Get ready to be captivated by Riqueni’s virtuoso guitar skills and his passionate performance. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience the magic of flamenco music up close and personal.
Rafael Riqueni, from the Triana neighborhood of Seville, has been acclaimed as one of the greatest masters of flamenco guitar. At the age of 12, he gave his first performances as a soloist, and, at 14, he won the two main national guitar awards: the Ramón Montoya Prize in the VIII Córdoba Competition and first prize in the VI National Competition of Jerez. Renowned for his distinctive style filled with novel harmonies and compositional concepts, he has appeared at Spain’s major flamenco festivals and toured internationally. His brilliant recordings, which make up one of the most praised discographies in flamenco, include the recent Latin Grammy-nominated Herencia.
This program marks his San Francisco debut and is the first concert in this year’s grand opening of SF Flamenco Concert Series at the Herbst War Memorial Building.
