"Ignacio,
I would like to thank you for a wonderful performance at my wedding. Although I was unable to hear you play for most of it, because I was so distracted, I heard you were wonderful. "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" sounded beautiful and evoked a lot of emotion from the guests. I hope everything ran smoothly on your end. Thank you for everything. I will certainly reccomend you to others.
Kendall"

"Hi Nacho,
I just wanted to thank you for performing with me yesterday at the -Does- wedding. I know the insects were so distracting and painful, which doubly makes me appreciate your artistry.
I look forward to the next one!
Tacy"

Best to you,

"The wedding music was beautiful on Saturday! Thank you so very much!
Paula and Dan"
"...Opening with some classy and melodic guitar pieces by two modern composers, Carolina Folmer and her husband, Ignacio Barcia, played with stunning expertise both tango rhythms and the slow and contemplative music that makes you want to cry and then go kiss somebody.
Barcia was then joined by Matthew Parker on piano for Luigi Boccherini's "Introduction and Fandango." The crowd was surrounded by sound waves from the grand piano played in grand style in that chamber-sized, acoustically live space..."
