DESCRIPTION:
Ronald Radford is an American Flamenco guitar player. Born in California, he currently resides in the St. Louis, Missouri area. Radford is a protégé of Carlos Montoya, and studied classical guitar with Andrés Segovia. He is the only person awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to study Flamenco in Spain, where he lived and traveled.
His performances have spanned four continents, as well as Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. In addition, he has toured as a music ambassador for the U.S. State Department.
Ron Radford's answer to the politicians who cut funding for the arts in
Kansas is to do the nine city tour anyway - without pay! Here is a true
artist who is out to create magic and make a difference in the world.
Besides the public concerts, he will reach dozens of schools (which have no
money) and inspire thousands of kids. You can support his work by donating

tracks from his CD Viva Flamenco!) - Jiggy Jaguar
