Strunz & Farah

The originators of blending Latin American and Middle Eastern guitars, Costa Rica’s Jorge Strunz and Iran’s Ardeshir Farah have performed together since 1979. Their highly influential fusions are inspiring and improvised. Often called “world jazz,” their passionate music is layered with sensuous melodies, flamenco, Afro- Caribbean, and Latin American folk. It’s as if when their two guitars collide, the strings burst into song. Their latest recording is Moods and Visions, celebrating 35 years of highly successful collaboration, continuing and evolving the duo’s original synthesis of multi-cultural elements into a flowing, melodic and rhythmic acoustic guitar style.
