Extremadura

“Extremadura” is the second album that Raphaël Faÿs, whose background is in gypsy jazz and classical music, has devoted to Andalusia. Raphaël’s guitar technique is faultless and his feeling for melody a rare gift indeed, which serves him well here in this demonstration of his unique flamenco style _ he plays the music using a pick. This new album shows all the virtuosity, passion and perfectionism that have made Raphaël Faÿs an unavoidable figure not only on the flamenco scene but also in all music.
