LASS FROM THE LOW COUNTRY

I often played at Sabor y Cultura, a coffee house in LA in the early 2000s - see the link below. The best nights musically were often those with the least number of patrons, because I could set a mood without fighting sonically with a loud reverberating room. This tango (no relation to the Argentine tango but the name) is in 4/4 time unlike much flamenco which is in hemiola, alternating measures of 3/4 and 6/8time. This style features lots of golpes - taps with the right hand ring finger - and rasgueados - the unique flamenco strums that are either short or long and always stop abruptly on a powerful beat. https://www.yelp.com/biz/sabor-y-cultura-los-angeles

Fantasia - Francesco da Milano

I recorded the album in the closet of a rented room in La Puente, CA as a gift for family and friends. Soon after it topped the Holiday charts on Airplay Direct in Nashville several times as the #1 download to radio stations around the world. I hope you enjoy my playing, which always comes from my heart to yours.
