Default Flamenco from Ireland

Hey everyone,
This is my first post as I just registered with the forum so I will introduce myself first.
My name is John Walsh.
I'm a Flamenco guitarist from Ireland. Been playing guitar for 13 years now and Flamenco for the last 6.
It is a music and culture that really means a great lot to me and the experience of learning about it has been a most enjoyable one.
I travel to Algeciras, Spain whenever I can afford to do so and stay for a few weeks to study with my 2 teachers there, Salvador Andrades & Jose Manuel León. They are both fantastic teachers, players and friends to me.

Anyway I am only recently putting my own compositions out into the world so I though I would share them with you here. The 1st is an Alegrías & the 2nd is a Soleá por Bulerías. I hope you enjoy them.
Any comments and/or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
John
