Paco de Lucía last performed in London at the London Jazz Festival of 2010. There were rumours surrounding that performance that it might have been his last, but he has been touring tirelessly throughout 2011 and 2012, so we can all breathe a sigh of relief as he is scheduled to perform at this year’s London Jazz Festival on Friday 16 November 2012 at the Royal Festival Hall, in Basel on Sunday 18 November 2012 and in Munich on 23 November 2012.

In December he will perform in Vienna on 4 December 2012, in Kiev on 6 December 2012 and in Odessa on 8 December 2012.

Here is a short excerpt from the 2010 London Jazz Festival performance:
