Guitarist Holly Blazina creates an immersive world of beauty and sound that draws in music lovers and Flamenco aficionados alike. The notes emanating from her instrument disarm unsuspecting listeners as they are ushered into an ethereal experience that is exotic, evocative, buoyant and deeply nourishing.
When first exposed to Flamenco’s passionate, soulful melodies and driving rhythms, Holly knew she had found her home musically. This quickly led to a lifelong commitment to the art form. She has had the good fortune of studying intensively with renowned artists both in Spain and North America, after having completed a Bachelor of Music degree in classical guitar performance in 1994. Her original compositions have won awards from the Canada Council for the Arts and FACTOR. Her debut recording, Transcendencia, was released in October, 2017.
