Born in Granada, Spain, on January 26, 1972, Miguel Angel Cort?s is a gypsy guitarist who is comfortable playing traditional flamenco, as well as more modern nuevo flamenco. Cort?s, like many flamenco guitarists, learned to play guitar from his gypsy relatives; he was born into a musical family that includes such flamenco artists as his father, Miguel?n Cort?s, and his brother Paco Cort?s. The Granada native was only eight when his relatives starting teaching him flamenco guitar and by the time he was a teenager, Cort?s was playing professionally. Cort?s, who has accompanied such flamenco vocalists as Estrella Morente and Jos? de la Tomasa, was 22 when he won the Paco de Luc?a Guitar Award in 1994. The late '90s found Cort?s touring with flamenco vocalist Carmen Linares and in 2000, his Patriarca album was released on Alula in the U.S.
