About this concert
A dynamic new acoustic duo, The Art of Deep Connection brings together the combined mastery of guitarist Omar Rios Melendez and pianist Alex Wilson. With years of musical collaboration and a shared passion for Latin American, jazz, and flamenco traditions, their performances blend fiery virtuosity with profound musical sensitivity.
Recently recorded at Steve Winwood’s studio for an Autumn 2025 release, this project takes audiences on a journey—from soul-stirring Latin melodies to jazz-infused flamenco interpretations and original compositions. Each performance is an invitation to experience music in its purest form: intimate, expressive, and deeply immersive.
In an era of constant digital noise, The Art of Deep Connection offers something rare—a space where music creates a genuine, offline connection between performers and audience. This is more than a concert; it’s an experience that lingers long after the final note.
