Today kicks off a week of concerts for The Paco de Lucía Legacy Festival, inspired by the famous flamenco guitarist around the tenth anniversary of his death. Tonight, the festival begins with a concert at Carnegie Hall, before more than thirty musicians play in venues around the city through February 24. To preview the festival and the Carnegie Hall set tonight, we're joined by artistic director Julio Martí, and we hear a performance from guitarist and festival participant Yerai Cortés.
