Paco De Lucia is the greatest flamenco guitarist the world has yet to know. Famous for his unparalleled technique and brilliant compositions, Paco De Lucia flamenco is a new art, he has found a new way to play flamenco.

Thanks to his rigorous training of 4-10 hours a day since the age of 7, Paco De Lucia has taken most techniques at another level, especially the picados. Many ask how Paco De Lucia plays picado so fast, the only answer is practice, huge amounts of practice. This makes one wonder if there will be any other flamenco guitarist to match his level.

This is not to say that Paco De Lucia flamenco is the one and only, there are many other great flamenco guitar players like Paco Pena, Vicente Amigo and Gerardo Nunez, each of them has created a different style of flamenco, thus ensuring diversity in this art.

In his early years Paco De Lucia met the great master Sabicas, who told him that no one should try to copy another guitar players style, but instead he should create his own. This encouraged young Paco to search for a new and different style.

The result is 50 years of constant touring around the world, a fusion between Paco De Lucia flamenco and all the other big genres of music, namely the jazz fusion with John Mclaughlin and Al Di Meola. The trio is well known around the world as they have toured together in many countries, sharing their beautiful technical accomplishments and melodic phrases.

Today Paco De Lucia is still touring and is intent on releasing a new album. It will be interesting to see the contents of his new album. I am looking forward to it’s release as paco de lucia flamenco is both interesting and challenging for the ear.
