The Magical guitar
LA GUITARRA MÁGICA
Reportaje de Jam Albarracín
Se abre el telón y se ve a un señor tallando una pieza de madera. El señor es Antonio Morales, extremeño residente en Mallorca, lutier y amigo íntimo de Paco de Lucía; la madera no es sino la costilla de la que nacerá, tras muchas horas de amorosa ingeniería artesanal y precisión de cirujano, La Maestro, algo así como la imposible guitarra perfecta que, tras largos diálogos a la brisa del atardecer mediterráneo, el mayor genio de la música popular española del siglo XX encargó fabricar a Toni bajo los parámetros de su propio diseño. Comienza la función, arranca la emoción.
Este es el inicio de ‘La guitarra vuela. Soñando a Paco de Lucía’, el magnífico documental ideado, realizado y dirigido por el creativo marciano Jorge Martínez junto al músico y productor Javier Limón.
