Guitar Virtuoso Eric Henderson is one of only three privately taught students of Andres Segovia. Recuerdos de la Alhambra is a classical guitar piece composed by the great Spanish composer and guitarist Francisco Tárrega. Recuerdos de la Alhambra shares a title with the Spanish language translation of Washington Irving's 1832 book "Tales of the Alhambra", which he wrote during his four year stay in Spain.
Eric Henderson has been touching souls for many years with his unique ability with the guitar. It was clear that Eric had a calling when he first picked up the instrument at an very early age.
Since his mother, a classically trained pianist, first let Eric use her guitar when he was only 6 years old, playing the guitar and Classical music, been Hendersons passion. He was soon ready for his own guitar, which he mastered so well. At age13, Eric Henderson was invited to Spain to become one of only 3 people to study privately with the master guitarist Andres Segovia.
Henderson spent the next 4 years in Spain learning the intricacies of the classical guitar, while playing as much as 12 hours per day. In addition to Andres Segovia, Henderson has studied guitar with Christopher Parkening, Angel Romero, Ernesto Bitetti, Emilio Pujol and Antonia Morales. He also has studied Baroque interpretation with Ton Koopman and Henk Dekker, and theory and composition with Aureo Hererro.
