About

Colombian guitarist Francisco Correa has captivated audiences in over 20 countries with performances that combine virtuosic technique with genuine emotional depth. Praised by Gramophone for his eloquence and by BBC Radio 3 as "a truly remarkable performer", he is one of the most distinctive voices in classical guitar today.

A passionate advocate of new music, Francisco has commissioned and premiered works by leading composers including Stephen Goss, Gerald Garcia, and Pedro Barreiro. His recording catalogue — released on Deux-Elles Records — consistently champions underheard Latin American and contemporary repertoire.

Recently appointed an Associate of the Royal Academy of Music (ARAM), Francisco is Artistic Director of Ham Farm Festival in Bristol, the Bristol Classical Guitar Society, and the International Guitar Foundation Summer School in Bath.
