Flamenco Summer Workshop – For Classical Guitarists

Join us this summer for an immersive Flamenco Workshop designed specifically for classical guitarists new to flamenco, with the extraordinary flamenco guitarist Carlos Piñana from July 13–16.

Carlos comes from a deep flamenco lineage, his grandfather was a legendary cantor, his father a renowned guitarist, and he has spent his life mastering and teaching this art form. As a professor of flamenco guitar at the Murcia Superior Music Conservatory, he has developed an inspiring approach to helping classical guitarists unlock the rhythms, colors, and soul of flamenco. 

If you’ve ever been curious about flamenco or wanted to expand your skills, this is the perfect opportunity.

Course Details

This four day workshop will occur at The Baker Center culminating with a performance with Carlos Piñana and percussionist Miguel Angel Orengo Vicente. Registration also includes one free ticket for a special Rosette performance with Carlos and Miguel Angel on either July 18-19, following the workshop. 

The workshop includes 2 different courses of study.  

Intro to Flamenco  is specifically designed for classical guitarists who are new to flamenco. This is a great way to build and develop fundamental techniques and dance forms. To participate you’ll need some experience with fingerstyle guitar, rudimentary reading skills, a classical or flamenco guitar, and a wire music stand.

Advanced Flamenco is designed for guitarists with some flamenco experience.  This will reinforce fundamental techniques,  develop advanced skills and forms and move at a quicker pace.
