Jorge Strunz, born in Costa Rica, and Ardeshir Farah, hailing from Iran, met in the United States in 1979.
Having both played guitar professionally since their early teens, they soon teamed up and released their
self-produced first album Mosaico in 1980
The dynamite guitar duo Jorge Strunz and Ardeshir Farah make musical magic and create a wonderful new,
high energy sound for the acoustic guitar. Costa Rican Strunz's and Iranian born Farah's fusion
of Middle Eastern, Latin American and Mediterranean music is simply outstanding. I had mentioned to a
friend how much I enjoy the Gipsy Kings. He proceeded to play "Primal Magic" for me, which I
immediately bought - my first Strunz and Farah album. While not the same mixture of Flamenco and
Spanish the Kings produce, there is a certain quality in these exotic instrumental cuts that is
somewhat reminiscent of their style - perhaps the Mediterranean influence with a wild touch of the
gypsy.
