EXHILARATING displays of flamenco dancing combine with virtuoso guitar work when Juan Martin stops off at Theatre Royal Winchester next month, accompanied by his new band Quinteto Fabuloso.

Voted one of the top three guitarists in the world by US magazine Guitar Player, Juan is in the vanguard of modern flamenco, utilising jazz and classical harmonies in his music.

With 14 albums to his name, the native of Andalucia remains faithful to the complex traditions of flamenco while embracing more contemporary musical concepts.

His improvisation and interplay with the other instruments finds a perfect counterpoint in the passionate displays of flamenco dance.

You can see Juan Martin at Theatre Royal Winchester on Thursday, May 5. Tickets cost £14.50. For more information call the box office on 01962 840440.
