From "Forum": "It's always the worst, when at the end of
a show you're pulled up to dance and your leg is asleep from holding the
guitar all night."
Jorge Liceaga, Mark Taylor, Carola Zertuche (Yerba Buena Center, S.F.)
Mark Taylor’s combined experience in classical and flamenco guitar
makes him a strong and dynamic performer of the classical repertoire while
providing an approach to flamenco that is rhythmically vibrant, passionate
and true to the essence of the many styles and forms he interprets. Taylor
also performs in a variety of flamenco ensembles with guitars, percussion,
flute, laud and voice as well as dance performances with his “Aire
Flamenco” dance company.
Mark was the #1 flamenco artist on MP3.com! His three recordings, “Pena
y Alegria”, “Caminos Flamencos”, and “Flamenco Classico”
available on CD reflect his passion and dedication to the music and culture
of Spain.
