Open air concert recorded at Parador de Jávea, Spain, on June 16, 2014 -- Antonio Muñoz Fernández, La Unión (Spain), 1975, is the grandson of the guitarist Antonio Fernández and son of the flamenco singer Encarnación Fernández. He began his training as a guitarist at the age of three led by his grandfather. He rounded off his education with such teachers as Manuel Cano and, very soon, he developed a personal style grounded on a polished technique and on an intense and lively creativity. This took him to win the “Bordón Minero“ prize in 1989, the highest award at the Mines' Singing International Festival. He is currently the official guitarist at this Festival and he alternates his work as a teacher at the Mines' Singing Foundation Flamenco Art School with performances at concert halls, auditoria as well as national and international theatres, both playing musical accompaniment to singing spectacles and giving concerts as a soloist with his musical group. Apart from his mother, he has accompanied flamenco singers like Rancapino, Enrique Morente, Carmen Linares, Manuel Cuevas, Terremoto hijo, Miguel de Tena, Juan Pinilla, Rocío Márquez, María Toledo, Macanita, etc. Moreover, he has worked for Nadia Márquez's dancing group for five years. His musical accompaniment to singing can be found in different recordings published by the Mines' Singing Festival. In addition, he has engaged in projects like Flamenco Minas Tour, a spectacle joining flamenco and Indian music. Furthermore, he is the author of the album “Azafrán“ and is currently involved in the composition of the songs for his second solo album.
