Cañizares guitar
Berliner Philharmoniker
Sir Simon Rattle

This year’s concert takes place in the beautiful Teatro Real Madrid in Spain. The Berliner Philharmoniker under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle welcome famous Flamenco guitarist Cañizares. His virtuosity, his technique, harmony, strength and sensitivity have distinguished Cañizares as a unique artist, considered as one of the great flamenco musicians of the turn of the century. Above anything else, however, Cañizares praises simplicity and purity of sound, transmitting a message with a high emotional impact.
