Paco Pena - Flamenco Mass at Manchester Cathedral


The world's foremost flamenco guitarist, Paco Pena, is set to perform his astonishing and utterly riveting 'Flamenco Mass' with full choir, flamenco guitarists, singers and dancers live in the grand surroundings of Manchester Cathedral on Friday 20th April 2012 for an exclusive UK show.



Born and raised in the Spanish heartland of Cordoba, Paco Pena is considered one of the world's greatest living exponents of the haunting and passionate art of Flamenco. His virtuoso guitar playing, alongside his Paco Pena Flamenco Dance Company, has toured all the major concert halls of the world to huge international acclaim.



Now considered one of his greatest works, Pena has re-written the traditional church mass for flamenco guitars, dancer and large-scale choir to brilliant effect. By combining the melodic and rhythmic nuances from flamenco with the texts of the Liturgy, Paco Pena creates something that is revelatory and joyous to watch in equal measure.



The concert will feature Paco Pena on flamenco guitar, a full choir as well as flamenco guitarists, singers and flamenco dancers live.



“His total dedication of almost incredible technical skill so ensuring that listeners, held a packed house enraptured.” -The Daily Telegraph
