Born in France of Spanish extraction, Juan Carmona followed in the footsteps of such great flamenco guitarists as Paco de Lucia, Paco Peña and Tomatito, soaring to triumph in Andalusia, the cradle of the genre. A guitarist, composer and creator of the popular Sinfonia flamenca, performed by orchestras the world over, Carmona is a most worthy representative of the new generation of flamenco. His most recent album,
El sentido del aire, delves into musical traditions and reinterprets them with the surprising clarity and modernity that are his trademarks.
