Thomas Hofmann makes his musical dreams come true by interpreting rare and precious music of old European Masters, whose works have been forgotten for a long time. His way takes him through a voyage of the symmetry of the classical music passing through the expressive folk music of Latinoamerica to the rhythmical feelings of flamenco. Each instrument that he plays - from the renaissance lute to the flamenco guitar - reveals, despite of the related playing techniques, their own sensitive world; the filigree of the renaissance lute, the emotion of the theorbe, the tenderness of the classical guitar, the richness of its modern successor and the magic of the flamenco guitar. Hardly any artist - even in the international scene - has presented in one concert all this instruments, like Thomas Hofmann.

The program can be as follows: as a recital or a lecture concert. The interpreter gives an explanatory information of the played music in an entertaining way.
