Jose Manuel Leon ~ Sirimusa ~ CD
A young guitarist from Algeciras who has come to the attention of many aficionados through his association with Gerardo Nunez' Nueva Escuela de la Guitarra Flamenca. In his solo recording debut, he is assisted by singer Alicia Carrasco, double bassist Pablo Martin, guitarist Juan Requena, bassist Martin Garcia Leiton, and several drummers, percussionists, and palmeros. Leon covers plenty of traditional ground and shows a very solid Flamenco foundation throughout, but also pushes a lot of stylistic limits.
