Spanish Guitar

La Guitarra Española

José Miguel Moreno is a leading Spanish performer of plucked string instruments. In fact, he is a lot more: A concert performer, researcher, and a builder and collector of musical instruments.
Moreno plays a range of instruments made either by Lourdes Uncilla or by himself in order to infuse with a new vitality the fundamental repertories in the history of the guitar.

This special edition CD marks the departure point of a new process of collaboration between José Miguel Moreno and the recording label which he helped to create, with brand new recordings being planned which will appear later this year.
