Explore The Sounds Of The Mediterranean

Music brings people together, and nowhere is that more evident than in the Mediterranean. For generations, musical styles, techniques, and instruments have traveled freely across the sea.

When we talk about Mediterranean guitar music, dozens of images and sounds come to mind. Are you standing in a crowded market in Egypt as a street performer captivates listeners gathered around him? Maybe you are in a Spanish flamenco bar, watching as dancers move to the up-tempo sounds of the rumba flamenca? Or at a community gathering celebrating the occasion with the Bulgarian Rachentiza or the Greek Rebetiko?

These unique styles have some key differences, but they also share many distinct similarities – that’s the beauty of the Mediterranean guitar.

Having contributed to multiple Grammy award winning productions, released over 20 of his own world guitar dedicated albums and featured on educational publications by Hal Leonard, Stefan Grossman Guitar Workshop, Mel Bay, Universal and Warner, Fernando takes his inspiration from an ever unquenched thirst for musical knowledge.
