Spanish legend Sábicas has called René Heredia “the most sensational
Flamenco guitarist in the United States.” His international
recognition came when he was 17 and the incomparable flamenco dancer
Carmen Amaya (Spain’s greatest dancer of this century) heard him
play. She immediately took him to be her lead guitarist, and René
toured many years doing concerts in the major capitals of Europe and
the United States with the famous Amaya Ballet. A multi-award
winner, René has received the Colorado Governor’s Award for
Excellence in Performance and Education and The Mayor’s Award for
Excellence in the Arts in Denver. He is regarded as one of
Colorado’s well-known composers, and has also been recognized in a
special tribute to Colorado artists at the Kennedy Center in
Washington, D.C. A consummate performer, René has played all over
the world including Paris, London, Madrid and Barcelona. “The guitar
playing of René Heredia is in the finest tradition of Flamenco,
creating a flaming intensity that cannot fail to arouse.” —
Denver Post. This-two night engagement at Swallow Hill will
feature a flamenco dance extravaganza with fabulous dancers. The
combination of sensuous flamenco rhythms accompanied by authentic
gypsy choreography will deliver a night to remember. Enjoy the
enchantment of Spain, and the excitement of genuine gypsy music and
