Johannes Linstead Nouveau Flamenco Orchestra & Dancer
Saturday January 27th From winning three “best album” awards, to four top-ten charting albums, to top-ten radio airplay, Johannes Linstead has become recognized internationally as one of best selling guitarist/composers in the nouveau flamenco genre. Now with the release of his sixth album, Cafe Tropical, Johannes once again let’s loose a fiesta of Spanish Johannes’ live performances are nothing short of phenomenal. Bursting with tropical sounds, audiences are moved to dance and clap along to his music. In concert, as on his recordings, Johannes strives to create a festive mood, leaving plenty of room for lightning fast guitar improvisations and spicy percussion solos, which include bongos, congas, timbale and doumbek. Lively Latin and Mediterranean rhythms combined with Johannes’ technical virtuosity leave audiences breathless. A hugely talented multi-instrumentalist, Johannes plays guitar, piano, mandolin, bouzouki, bass, wood flute and various percussion. On his recordings, world-class musicians back him from countries as diverse as Cuba, Columbia, Syria, Greece, Mexico, Russia, Venezuela, the Ukraine and India. Influenced deeply by the journeys he experienced as a youth, Johannes states: “The integration of the many cultures I have experienced, from Spain, to the Caribbean Islands, to Latin America, have moved me to create new rhythms and sounds. Experiencing these cultures - not just the music but also the people’s everyday triumph over adversity - is what inspires my music.” Show Starts at 8:00pm, Desserts, Wine & Beer at 7:00pm |
