Juan José Manzano, is a Spanish Flamenco guitarist and composer living in Ireland since 2005, where he earns his living as a musician. 
He has been surrounded by Flamenco since he was born and was greatly influenced by his mother singing Flamenco at home. She introduced him to flamenco and the passion he feels for this art form. 

After playing on many stages and flamenco festivals throughout Andalusia, Manzano decided to come to Ireland, where he develops his passion: the showcase and the integration of traditional Flamenco music in Ireland. 

Manzano has composed eight original pieces called palos (name given in Flamenco to the different traditional musical forms. There are more than 50 different palos) from the genealogical tree of Flamenco which, in his opinion, are the most representative ones. 
This event is part of the programme at the Instituto Cervantes Dublin on the occasion of the Spanish EU Council Presidency.www.juanjosemanzano.com.﻿..El Instituto Cervantes de Dublín junto a la Embajada de España en Irlanda celebran la cultura mediterránea con un mes de actividades.

Juan José Manzano es guitarrista y compositor flamenco. Vive en Irlanda desde 2005. La música flamenca forma parte de su vida desde una edad muy temprana. Su madre cantaba flamenco y copla todos los días en casa. Ella le enseñó el amor por este arte. 

Después de tocar en muchos escenarios y festivales flamencos por toda Andalucía, decidió venir a Irlanda, donde hoy en día desarrolla su pasión: la exhibición y la integración de la música flamenca en este país.

Para ello, ha compuesto ocho piezas originales. Ha seleccionado los que considera los ocho palos más representativos del árbol genealógico del flamenco.
