Hire a Flamenco Guitarist for events anywhere in the U.K.
Would you like to hire a flamenco guitarist for your event?
If so, I can help you.
Please contact me by phone or e mail to discuss music for your event.
I will give detailed information below.
However, first my videos and sound clips as these really show how I play.
My flamenco guitar videos
I try to add more videos, from time to time. However, as an indication of how I play you may like.
Zapateado en Re: The gentle, sensitive minor section from this composition.
Colombiana: A live performance of this rhythmical South American style.
Bulerías: Starts slowly, builds to a powerful crescendo.
My flamenco guitar sound clips
I added these sound clips against the advice of other guitarists.
They are not indicative of everything that I play.
Rather I include them to show a very authentic flamenco that can be difficult to find outside of Spain.
Hire a flamenco guitarist for many different events
I play for a wide range of events:
weddings, private celebrations, Spanish themed events
Music societies, Guitar societies, Summer music schools, Theatres
Baptisms and Christenings, Funerals and Memorial Services
Many other occasions.
We do want to hire a flamenco guitarist for our event.
Could you tell us more about the music that you play?
I play Spanish Flamenco and Classical guitar.
My position is as follows:
My music will never be so complex and sophisticated that it risks alienating people.
Conversely, my music is never dumbed down or over simplified.
My music is for you, for your event.
Therefore, it is clear that it must be the music that you really want.
How long do you play for at an event?
I like to be flexible with regards to the total playing time, organisation into sets and breaks. You event is unique to you so if practical I like to work around your plans.
How far will you travel?
I play the guitar at events all over the U.K. throughout the year. I am based in Buckinghamshire but there are no limits to engagement locations.
Please tell us much more about the music that you play
My clients are always intelligent cultured people who know how to listen to and appreciate music.
They often have previous experience and knowledge of flamenco.
However, they still want to enjoy the musical experience and it is absolutely right that they should request those pieces that they most enjoy.
I play Flamenco and Spanish Classical guitar music.
Flamenco is a music that has developed from and contains the following musical styles and moods:
Spanish Gipsy:
The pieces that are particularly associated with Spanish Gypsies or to use the correct Spanish term ‘Gitanos’ tend to be very passionate and full of energy.
Moorish:
These pieces tend to be delicate with in intricate scales and Arabic melodic lines.
South American:
The South American pieces within the flamenco repertoire tend to have something of a gentle lilt or sway with sweet melodies.
Spanish Andalusian:
So many different moods.
Slow, fast, sorrowful, joyous, powerful, gentle, robust, relaxed. major, minor.
Classical Guitar Pieces
In addition to the extensive flamenco repertoire Tomás plays many of the most beautiful Spanish Classical guitar pieces.
These pieces are very popular and have wonderful meaningful melodies.
Flamenco Guitar music is perhaps thought of as a little more robust and energetic than say for example the Classical guitar.
The combination of both styles provides an ideal accompaniment to any Spanish themed event.
