Antonio Forcione Quartet
Hailed as the “Jimi Hendrix of the acoustic guitar”, multi-award-winning Antonio Forcione is considered one of the most charismatic and inventive performers to come out of Europe in recent years. He breaks the mould of most conventional, popular guitar sounds, be it in the field of jazz, Spanish, African, Brazilian or improvised music. Artistic, intense, and formidably inventive, Antonio Forcione is a performer of genuine distinction. The concert features his dynamic international quartet – Brazilian master-percussionist Adriano Adewale, cellist Jenny Adejayan, and Nathan Thomson on double bass and flutes.
