Khitara is an odd ensemble: two electric guitars, two classical guitars and a percussion set.
Each song played by Khitara sounds intimate, close, and is spiced with new arrangements where Carballido gets the best from each musician.
Khitara performs Carballido´s original music and great international rock songs rearranged and reinvented for this ensemble. Some of the bands they´ve covered are: Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Boston, Queen, Guns and Roses, Metallica...
The really exciting thing about this project is to discover how via a so unusual instrumental template you get a unique and extremely interesting sound that combines the sweetness of classical guitars with the aggressiveness of electrical and how the covered songs become new works because of the very special sound of the ensemble.
All this coupled with the performers extensive academic training ensures a high quality show in which any music lover will enjoy an extremely pleasant sound.
