Good Attendance: Presenters report that his performance attracted more people than many solo artists partly because Flamenco is a rare art form that everyone wants to hear, and because the guitar is the most popular instrument in the world.

"We had hoped for an audience of 250 and had over 400 people show up instead!"
Tulsa Jr. College, OK.

"Two thousand hand clapping, foot stomping 'aficionados'
is truly a thrilling experience!"
Imperial Valley Arts Council, CA.

Musical Variety: As one sponsor wrote, "His repertoire touched every one's is tastes. His technique fascinated all ages." His audiences are filled with people who like everything from Jazz and Bluegrass, to those who love the classics. Flamenco is an art that has something for everyone...from haunting Gypsy melodies to fiery Spanish dance rhythms! This is a program that will have everyone shouting "Ole!"

Friendly Style: "A world-class artist with a 'down home' touch" is a typical review comment prompted by his warm and friendly style of talking with the audience. He introduces each selection with a blend of information, inspiration and stories of his personal experiences with the Gypsies in Spain,

Residencies: Ron sees himself as an ambassador for the arts dedicated to building new audiences and he would like to help you build your audience in your community with the outreach of his informal mini-concerts for various community groups as well as his school programs.

Motivational School Programs: His school programs will encourage students to know that they are each unique and special and that we are all here to use our talents to make the world a better place. He shows how success and happiness in life depends on respecting and caring about others and being responsible in everything we think and say and do. Each moment is an opportunity to make a choice that can be part of the solution to family, school, and world problems. As part of the National Program he wears 'The Choice For Me, Drug Free' red ribbon. "Always do your best, and the best will always come back to you" is an underlying theme of his stories which introduce each musical selection for the students.

Great Press Kit: His Press & Promotion Kit may be the most complete and best organized you have ever used.

Inspiration Insight And Vision: Although his international tours have taken him to 15 countries, from Australia to Switzerland and from Canada to Panama, he does not think of himself as traveling around the world, but as he says, "traveling around the sun, riding on planet earth. A North American playing the music of the Spanish Gypsies might be unusual, but an individual from planet earth playing music from some other place on planet earth is quite natural.

" Ron tells his audience: "Whatever you experienced at this concert that was of any artistic or spiritual value, you experienced for one reason only, and that is because you brought it in here with you! I didn’t give it to you as the artist. No one can give you what is already yours! As an old Gypsy in Spain taught me, the artist is only a mirror to show you, the people, what you already have within yourself. We are all fully equipped with all the wonder, beauty and joy of the whole universe. Music is just one of the ways we awaken to more of who we really are."
