Picture
Adam Del Monte is a virtuoso guitarist who has recently recorded a groundbreaking album called Asi Lo Siento Yo that features some of the most illustrious gypsy players in Spain.

Adam Del Monte was born in Israel but spent two years as very young child in Spain where he heard the music that would become his life. He knew it from the beginning.

“It was incredible,” Del Monte said. “For that very reason, my cultural identity is Flamenco…I completely identify myself through Flamenco – that is my true voice of expression.”

Del Monte returned to Spain as a young man and studied in the famed Sacromonte caves of Granada – a Gypsy district where the old traditions are passed on. Among his teachers was the legendary Pepe Habichuela. He also studied more formally at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, England. The combination of both his training has enabled him to stride through two worlds that are rarely bridged – he is an accomplished classical guitarist as well as a Flamenco artist.
