Barcelona on a Nickel
The sound of the flamenco guitars filled the air and they fought with the background she made so well, and those sounds come together as BARCELONA on a NICKEL, as the night air transports you to a freshness and aroma of another time and place. Acoustic Instrumental music with a distinct flavor from Gallicia intermingled with new century passion creates an energy that is both relaxing and stimulating.
