  • Pablo Sáinz Villegas is hailed by critics as one of the world's leading classical guitarists and celebrated as a natural ambassador of Spanish culture with performances in more than 30 countries since his auspicious debut with the New York Philharmonic under Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos at Avery Fisher Hall. The soul of the Spanish guitar runs in Pablo Villegas's blood. Born and raised in La Rioja, Spain – the country uniquely and deeply linked to his chosen instrument – Villegas is praised for performances as charismatic as they are intimate. With his singing tone and consummate technique, Villegas offers interpretations that conjure the passion, playfulness, and drama of his homeland's rich musical heritage, routinely drawing comparisons with such legendary exponents of his instrument as Andrés Segovia.

    “Virtuosic playing characterized by its vividly shaded colors and irresistible exuberance…” - The New York Times
