* I studied Flamenco and lived in Spain for a while with a Legendary Gypsy family "JIMENEZ" in Madrid,Spain. I am familiar with and studied all the major components of Flamenco, from accompaniment of dancers and singers to solo guitar. Flamenco is a way of life, a culture, one that I was blessed to experience and learn from my teachers and their families, not only to physically play the guitar but to view and understand life from their point of view..... a spiritual experience, one that I love to share with my guitar students and anyone who is interested in the passionate art form of Flamenco...hope to see you soon...

Feedback
- I hired Walter Molina before I saw him perform live based on his reviews and he performed above and beyond my expectations. Not only was he professional, but very charming and accommodating when my outside party was hit by a freak windstorm. The weather could not have been worse but he and Paloma Rios, a dancer he recommended (who was amazing as well), helped the party smoothly transition to a warmer location. Molina's playing was fantastic, Ms. Rios's dancing was enchanting. I give him my highest reccommendation, and look forward to booking him again. -- Amber W, Newport Beach, CA, 12/3/2011
- Walter Molina performed at our Wedding Reception. It was an intimate setting. His style of music went beyond our expectations. All of our guests loved the soothing, enriching sounds. He set the ideal mood for enjoying dinner and conversation with family and friends. He made sure we danced to "our" song; a song that we had requested and he graciously agreed to learn. We will recommend him to our family and friends for future events. Also we will hire him for our own events in a heart beat. Thank you Walter for providing wonderful sounds and an unforgettable evening. -- Sharon C, San Bernardino, CA, 10/22/2011
- I am so happy that we chose to work with Walter! We found him to be very professional and friendly and a pleasure to work with. He was available at all times for discussion prior to our event and arrived early with all his own equipment.
Walter has a very cool young and fresh vibe but don't let his looks fool you, he plays with incredible passion and an obvious love for the music. Our special guests from Spain were so impressed by his talent that we couldn't let him go. We asked him to stay for an additional two hours!
I highly recommend Walter for any occasion big or small. He is a wonderful addition to any event and we can't wait to work with him again! -- Mary G, Palos Verdes Estates, CA, 8/24/2011
- Walter is so very talented! The ladies just loved him. I hated to see him leave. He is very kind, and professional. Walter drove three hours in heavy traffic, and still managed to be in a good mood, and perform very well. Now, I'm looking for another reason to have him come and play again. You will not be disappointed if you choose him. Very,very, relaxing music. The Best! -- Anishka K, Santa Barbara, CA, 7/16/2011
- I was in need of a classical guitarist for a Birthday celebration at my home.I was impressed that with only three days before the party, I was able to secure Walter to play guitar at my event. Walter arrived on time and was very professional. He is talented and performed beautifully! Walter was very cordial and all of the guests loved all of the music he played.I would definitely recommend Walter to entertain at any event! Kathleen -- Kathleen C, Newport Coast, CA, 6/11/2011
- Walter Molina made our 10 year Anniversary Party magical! I found him to be an accomplished guitarist, his technique impeccable, his attention to the crowd, wonderful. He suggested Flamenco dancer & teacher,“Clarita” of Arte Flamenco Dance Theatre. What a treat & well worth the money. Clarita is old schooled Flamenco not like the wana-be junk that you sometimes see in LA & other big cities. Her singing,“palmas”, posture, footwork, & passion left us spellbound.
Mr. Molina alone was amazing, the two of them transported us to a night in a little Spanish café. I found Mr. Molina’s playing professional & emotional & showed that he was still“in love”with his guitar…
-- Deana V, Los Angeles, CA, 6/4/2011
- I can't say enough about Walter Molina Flamenco. Walter was very professional at each phase of my wedding planning. He performed the ceremony and cocktail music for my wedding which included a small flamenco performance which made my day unforgettable not only to me, but to our guests. He even learned a Billy Joel song for me which was better than I even imagined. I loved working with him and I will no doubt hire him again for any other event I would plan. -- Tracy R, Fullerton, CA, 6/5/2011
- Walter was so professional and went above and beyond to accommodate us on our special day. He played for our ceremony and cocktail hour for our wedding. His music is amazing and I distinctly remember his music playing as I walked down the aisle. It set the mood for our event and made it so special and unique.
There were many people to choose from and I highly recommend Walter! He is not only a nice guy, but professional, dependable, and trustworthy, on time, accommodating, and not to mention- extremely talented!
Thank you Walter for making our wedding so memorable! We would hire him again for another event without a doubt. I would Georgie & Chris -- Georgie J, San Clemente, CA, 5/14/2011
- Thank you so much for making our event so special. Your music set the tone for the party and took the party to the next level of success. Most importantly, thank you for being so professional and courteous to everyone. You are such a great talent and you can hear that talent and the love for what you do through your music. It is always refreshing to see a true artist at work on something that they truly love to do. I would recommend you, Walter Molina, to everyone I know.
For anyone looking for a professional, respectful and an extremely talented artist, look no further than Walter Molina. Not only has Walter gained a client, but he also gained a big fan!
-- Steve N, Fountain Valley, CA, 3/26/2011
- I booked Walter Molina (and a flamenco dancer) for my company Christmas party. It proved to be a very good decision. He was professional, friendly, helpful and reliable. On the day of the event he really provided wonderful entertainment. If I ever need to hire another Flamenco guitarist it would be Walter. Thank you! -- Onyi C, Orange, CA, 12/10/2010
- Walter was amazing. His gentle attitude and his transporting play made this party an event our guests will remember forever. Our guests were a group very familiar with Spanish guitar and could not beleive what they were hearing in an intimate familiar setting.
We would not only reccommend him highly, we will no doubt hire him again. -- Bill S, Los Angeles, CA, 11/13/2010
- Walter was GREAT! We met him months before our wedding at a regular gig he plays and he sat at the bar with us with his guitara in hand. Went through some ideas while getting to know us. When our big day came, he nailed it perfectly and the live musicianship was the touch we were looking for. All of our guests were impressed the the choice of music for our ceremony & cocktail hour and we were more than happy, too. Walter is very talented, passionate and professional. A must-hire for anyone looking for that AUTHENTIC flamenco/classical guitarista. Thank you, Walter, for making our special day so memorable! -- Jordan G, Camarillo, CA, 10/23/2010
- Walter was amazing! He is a talented and soulful musician. His presence and the the ambiance he created at my wedding made it truly memorable. If you like classical and Flamenco guitar, he is your man! -- Terry K, Los Angeles, CA, 10/16/2010
- The moment we first heard him, I knew he was the one for our wedding. I got many compliments on his music and it added such a special touch to our wedding, it was quite memorable...so glad we hired Walter and I look forward to referring him and hiring him again in the future. -- Celina E, Los Angeles, CA, 10/10/2010

- Walter is the most kindhearted and professional individual we had working with us to help make our wedding perfect! Thanks so much Walter! -- Anna K, Topanga, CA, 10/9/2010
- I hosted a Spanish themed dinner for 30 guests in honor of a very special couple. Walter Molina was very accommodating to our needs during cocktail hour and throughout the dinner. He played beautifully and has the upmost professionalism. Walter was mindful about traffic and drove in much earlier to be certain he was there on time.
I would highly recommend Walter for any event small or large. I have already had a few guests ask for his contact and website information.
-- Yolita D, San Juan Capistrano, CA, 8/18/2010

- Walter Molina FAR EXCEEDED my expectations!! I'm a great admirer of traditional flamenco music. I spent some time living in Spain and am very familiar with authentic flamenco music. Walter really made my birthday party extra special. I was taken away by his incredible passion, spirit and technical ability. It really took me back to my days in Spain. Everyone at my party was captivated by his performance. Aside from Walter's beautiful performance he was professional, reliable and very accomidating. I highly reccomend him. Thank you Walter, I will be calling you for my next event! -- Magda P, Los Angeles, CA, 1/6/2010
- From the first moment I spoke with Walter, I had a good feeling about him. He is down to earth, very professional, and attentive to his client's needs. When I requested a flamenco dancer to perform alongside him, he said no problem. Their performance for our wedding dinner was spectacular! All our guests were very impressed, and it gave our wedding an elegant and unique touch. Walter is so talented; his guitar playing was exceptional. And Paloma Rios, the dancer, was amazing. My husband and I agree that this was the highlight of our wedding, and I can't wait to recommend and/our hire Walter for future events. -- Lisette S, Riverside, CA, 6/26/2010
- I had the opportunity and priviledge to see Walter play before my event, which made the anticipation even greater to have him play at my house as a surprise for my husband on our first wedding anniversary. He is absolutely phenominal and made our night perfect. He plays with unbelievable passion, energy and romance. He lives very far from our house and was able to make it here a half an hour early. He was very professional and accomodating, and I can't wait to hire him for our next party. I can't thank you enough Walter! -- Elisa Z, Huntington Beach, CA, 7/9/2010

- Walter's beautiful music made our evening complete! He arrived well in advance of the party and was playing while guests arrived. He was very responsive to all our questions and requests.

I highly recommend hiring Walter, and hope to hear him play again soon. -- Jennifer C, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA, 6/12/2010

- Walter was extremely pleasant and professional. He was accessible throughout the planning and flexible with our last minute scheduling issues which in my book gives him extra points! Guests loved his playing. He arrived early, played beautifully. He made the cocktail hour a huge success. He plays a lot of cool venues around town so we had ample opportunity to hear his work. I would not hesitate to book him again, and give him my highest recommendations! -- Marco D, Malibu, CA, 5/2/2010

He arrived on time, seemed very professional and dressed nicely. We were very pleased. - Mallory and Brad Orfall -- Mallory W, Glendale, CA, 10/17/2009

We would definitely bring him back and can highly recommend him! Bruce Gipe, MD -- Bruce G, North Hollywood, CA, 12/18/2009

Thanks Walter!!!
