The voice of Flamenco Violin

 

An emotional innovation.

Paco Montalvo, international Spanish classical violin soloist, pioneer of Flamenco Violin.

After becoming the youngest violinist of the 21th century to debut in the main hall of New York's Carnegie Hall at 18 years of age, conquering this legendary theatre with a memorable performance of Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 1, PACO MONTALVO, in his new musical work, shows the other side of himself and looks at his flamenco roots of the square and Taberna La Fuenseca of Córdoba. Paco Montalvo offers an unprecedented vision of the performance of the violin as a soloist in a process of hybridisation with flamenco. Based on the fusion concept, within the flamenco style, the violin sings and expresses emotions that until now were the domain of the singer and solo guitarist.
