Like great Paco de Lucia confirmed that traditional Spanish flamenco can perfectly get togather with jazz and other stuff, the Brazilian Paulo Bellinati, who turned his 70s this Oct, proved that classical spanish guitar fitted with nylon strings is super versatile - the fusion and comtemporary jazz suits it as perfertly as classical music does. You can check out hundreds of You Tube versions of Bellinati's Jongo, the piece which has been written in 1988 and become a pure gem of unstandart guitar repertory since John Williams recorded it in in 90's. I also highly recommend to watch LAGQ play 'Baião de Gude'. Here is my modest tribute to maestro - I recorded Bellinati's suite 'Conatos' and gonna publish it here on my channel in reverse order, from the final movement to the first. The guitar you see and hear in this video is made by Max Cuker:
