Paolo Pegoraro

guitarist

“Francisco is a young musician with great talent, supported by sensibility, intelligence and dedication to his studies, carried out with admirable rigor and seriousness. It was a real privilege for me, as well as a pleasure working with him. He is a wonderful musician!”

Pepe Romero

maestro

“Magnificent guitarist”

Andrés Mengíbar

Diario de Sevilla

"(...) Francisco Morais por su madurez como músico. Su capacidad de introspección le permitió adentrarse en la Passacaglia de Tansman con variedad de matices y acentos, a la vez que con claridad en la exposición de las texturas contrapuntísticas, cuestión esta última que afloró de manera magistral en su versión de la Invocación y danza de Rodrigo, profundamente expresiva."
