A Grammy Award winner, holder of the prestigious title of ‘Certified Guitar Player’ bestowed by the legendary Chet Atkins, and a musician who has performed on the world’s most prestigious stages – from the Sydney Opera House to Carnegie Hall – he has been one of the most prominent figures on the global guitar scene for several decades.
In Olomouc, he will primarily be presenting his latest album, *Living in the Light*, which critics have described as his most daring and personal recording to date. The album was recorded in just four days and blends elements of acoustic pop, jazz, blues, world music and classical music. On it, Emmanuel demonstrates with extraordinary energy and sincerity why he is regarded as one of the finest fingerstyle guitarists of our time.
