“If you don’t advance creatively, then all you have left is playing Vegas,” Al Di Meola once said… From his stunning arrival on the scene as the fiery virtuoso in Chick Corea’s jazz fusion group Return To Forever to his international acclaim as the member of an acoustic guitar trio (with John McLaughlin and Paco de Lucia), to his championing of the musical legacy of tango master Astor Piazzolla, guitarist Di Meola has held firm to this credo. Passionate, opinionated, and immensely gifted, he has covered more musical terrain in his 30-year career than many artists have in a lifetime.
