Two wonderful guitarists present an evening of mesmerizing classical and flamenco music, paired with delicious Moroccan cuisine. Michael Bautista has a passion for music, life, and learning. Michael has a Master's Degree in Music from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music,  is also a songwriter and a dedicated teacher of both guitar and mathematics. Michael Bautista was one of the top 5 guitarists in the Christopher Parkening International Guitar Competition, the world's preeminent classical guitar competition in 2006. Michael has performed the "Concierto de Aranjuez" for the Ambassador of Spain, given a solo performance for Senator John Kerry, and in 2005 was honored to perform as a soloist in Carnegie Hall.

Grisha is renowned for his musical sensitivity and technical virtuosity. As a master of both flamenco and classical styles, he has created a new genre all his own and garnered praise from guitar luminaries Paco de Lucía, Christopher Parkening, and Eliot Fisk. Grisha is a favorite on YouTube, generating over a million views for his videos, and has a large world-wide following. In May 2005 Mr. Goryachev received a special prize for the Best Performance of Spanish Music at the VI International Classical Guitar Competition "Julian Arcás" in Almería , Spain . As a winner of this prize, Mr. Goryachev performed recitals in Spain at Festival de Música Española de Cádiz and Festival de Música de Jimena de la Frontera.
