DUO Destino play Flamenco Fusion

Back at The Nutshell for their 4th annual Concert, DUO DESTINO (previously just known as  duo )  are ready to bring heat and passion to a cold November evening. Your favourite virtuoso acoustic guitarists will deliver another feel-good evening of dynamic playing with a range of emotions, percussive rhythms, dazzling technique, speed and their unique 'fat' sound.

Their huge repertoire of rock, pop and classical tunes, uniquely blended with flamenco, and their own similar compositions take you from Spain to The Camargue, Cuba, Mexico, Hollywood and South America. Their new compositions for 2025 are going down a storm on tour and the cherry on top of the cake will be a 5 minute arrangement of a popular piece by Vivaldi to flex their classical muscles. Two guitars replacing a whole chamber orchestra and yet nothing is missing! You are guaranteed to leave smiling and vowing to pick up your guitar again.  Come and see what all the buzz is about.

As they live fairly locally they occasionally play some pop tunes in the main street in Winchester on a Saturday and always attract a crowd but the other 95% of the time they 
give professional Concerts around the UK and Spain, France and Italy drawing on their 14 years of professional experience after meeting at the Royal Academy of Music in London.
Although their Concerts are time-tabled to last 2 hours they often overrun these days, with audiences wanting more,  so please bear that in mind if you're arranging a taxi pick-up afterwards!
