AFQ ANTONIO FORCIONE QUARTET
With Jenny Adejayan (cello), Adriano Pinto (percussion) Nathan Thomson (d.bass/Flute)
The Antonio Forcione Acoustic Quartet has been selling out all over Europe. Consisting of musicians from countries as far reaching as Brazil, Australia and Nigeria/Grenada, theirs is an imaginative and joyful synthesis, a world-class band with spectacular technique, who have developed a unique, powerful and exotic sound. Their albums, TOUCH WOOD, TEARS OF JOY has received rave reviews watch out for the new DVD/CD "ANTONIO FORCIONE QUARTET IN CONCERT" The music performed with mostly popular original compositions written by Antonio ‘An electrifying performance which had the audience alternating between gasps of astonishment and giggles of delight … The sound and magic of the Antonio Forcione Quartet whisks the listener on a journey around Europe and Asia, with moments of dazzling technical wizardry and heart-warming comedy. This unique fusion group is not to be missed.’ SCOOP, New Zealand “…with enough technical wizardry to satisfy even the most demanding virtuosity junkie, but his across the board appeal is reflected in a broad-ranging (and often hilarious) mix which takes in jazz, folk, flamenco, ethnic music, pop, rock, classical, and just about everything that comes to mind” (The List)

Please pass this invitation on to friends who would enjoy this events...thank you :)

A very welcome return to the Pizza Express Jazz Club of the award-winning guitar maestro Antonio Forcione, one of the most charismatic and inventive, not to mention unconventional, guitarists in the musical world today. As one critic memorably wrote “ all the madness, laughter, pain, love and ecstasy of the human condition is laid bare. Let him eat you alive” If that doesn’t convince you, come and see it for yourself. Each evening will have a different flavour, be it solo in duo with Zoe Rahman, in trio with Chico Chagas and Jonathan Preiss or with his outstanding quartet AFQ.
Not to be missed!

SOLO PERFORMANCE (Guitars - Steel-nylon-fretless guitar )
Reknowned for his virtuoso solo performances, this is a rare opportunity to catch Forcione completely on his own, when he lets his creative spirit run freely, and man and guitar become one as he showcases a mind-boggling variety of style and form using every possible part of the musical instrument in a spectacular display of musicianship.
