Bio

Ronaldo Baca Bio: 

    An accomplished performer of Flamenco, Jazz, Classical Guitar, and  

the Arabic lute (a.k.a. the Oud), Ronaldo has been playing for New  

Mexico audiences for over 30 years at venues such as the National  

Hispanic Culture Center of New Mexico, El Rey, Albuquerque  

Convention Center, La Posada Hotel, Cafe Broadway, Silk Road, and  

the Santa Fe Play House.  Outside of New Mexico he has performed  

in Hollywood, CA; Las Vegas, NV; Denver, CO; Lawrence,KA;  

Amarillo,TX, and Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Most recently, he has performed as a soloist with the Santa Fe  Symphony and Chorus at St. Francis Cathedral. 

Ronaldo has been a guest artist on several recordings, among them  

a Window Records audio tape by poet  

Jimmy Santiago Baca, recorded in 1996. He also recorded in Spain  

for a CD being produced out of England. 

Ronaldo has formed and been a member of several bands and acts, including  

Maria Benitez's Second Company, Flamenco del Encanto, Cabaret  

Flamenco, Aire Flamenco, Sadaqa, Sci-Fi, Scheherezade/Rajaz,  

Fathom, and Swing Magique. 

Ronaldo has been studying, composing, teaching, and performing  

music for 35 years. He began to study classical guitar at the  

age of thirteen under Hector Pimentel.  Under the influence of his grandfather, his interests  

broadened to include Flamenco.  He has studied Flamenco for 26 

years under the guidance of Juan Junquera Cortez, Santiago Moreno,  

Pedro Cuadra, Chuscales, Pedro Cortez, Roberto Castellon, and Eric  

Patternson. 

Ronaldo has also become an accomplished Middle Eastern Oud  

performer. His Oud teachers consist of well known maestros from both the Arabic and Turkish cultures, namely  

Naser Musa, Haig Manoukian, and Necati Celik. 

 His passion for the art of gypsy music and background in jazz has naturally led to the pursuance of Jazz Manouche. Ronaldo has studied this art form under Samson Schmitt. 

Ronaldo pursues Spanish Flamenco, Gypsy Jazz,  and Arabic music for their intensity and raw passion.  He brings to the music an  

aggressive style and an instinctive understanding of its underlying  

pathos.  For over a year, he studied and lived in Jerez de la Frontera,  

Andalucia, Spain, with a Moorish echo in the background, amongst  

the true Flamencos of the present day.  He was reared amidst a family  

devoted to Flamenco, and his familiarity with its form and its culture is  

reflected in his passionate performances.
