Manolo Sanlúcar
Guitarist
Composer / songwriter
Name:Manuel Muñoz Alcón
Birth: 1943 Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Cádiz

"Us flamencos can't sacrifice musical qualities and essences to continue preserving something that was very meaningful at the time of our elders, but isn't that way anymore".
Together with Paco de Lucía and Serranito, he revolutionised concert guitar playing in the twentieth century. His ability to innovate and his continuous search for new possibilities have led him to compose works that have a strong personal emphasis, which is always related to what he calls learned music, but without losing its Andalusian flavour. In fact, he was the first artist who brought flamenco to the Teatro Real in Madrid. Fantasia para guitarra y orquesta, Trebujena, Medea and Soleá -which were performed by the Ballet Nacional de España- Tauromagia and Aljibe are some of his works. Several young artists who are now great guitarists were once his protegés, like Vicente Amigo and Rafael Riqueni.

He took his first steps in music with his father, the amateur Isidro Sanlúcar, who took him to Seville when he was a boy so that he could be heard by Pepe Pinto, who recommended him to Pepe Marchena, with whom he took part in his first tour as a professional. Later, he was to accompany other artists like La Paquera de Jerez, María Vargas, Porrina de Badajoz and Agujetas. In the sixties, he joined the group of resident artists in the tablao Las Brujas in Madrid, and he recorded his first album as a solo artist. After a productive artistic relationship with Enrique Morente, when he was not yet twenty, he composed his trilogy Mundo y formas de la guitarra with which he reached his artistic peak. The rumba Caballo negro earned him fame. As a result of this impressive trajectory he was awarded the Premio Nacional de Música in 2001.

In 1999, he recorded Locura de Brisa y Trino, after it was unveiled in the Biennial festival in 1998, with Carmen Linares singing. He also took part in the film Sevillanas by Carlos Saura, alongside his friend Paco de Lucía. Recently, Manolo Sanlúcar has composed the music for Sara Baras' show entitled Mariana Pineda.
