The Eivissa Clàssica 2025 Festival celebrates its fifth and penultimate concert this Friday, December 5, at 8 p.m., with an intimate and deeply personal proposal: ‘Solo Guitar’, the solo project of guitarist Mar Sánchez. The event will take place in the cultural space of Can Ventosa, where the public can enjoy a sound experience focused on the guitar as an expressive vehicle.
The recital brings together original compositions that will be part of the artist’s next album. These pieces are born from a dialogue between influences as diverse as J. S. Bach, Astor Piazzolla, Heitor Villa-Lobos and Jimi Hendrix, creating her own musical language that fuses classical tradition, popular elements and an experimental vision.
Original works that pay tribute to great referents
The program includes titles such as Saturn first revolution, Full moon por bulerías, Prelude to Shostakovich, Estrella de la mañana, Taranta a mi abuelo, Little wing – Homenaje a J. Hendrix, Arenas de Soledad and Free Impro around E minor. Through these pieces, Sánchez traces a journey that connects his artistic identity with references from different periods and styles.
The proposal is presented as a close and careful recital, designed so that the audience can delve into the nuances of the solo guitar and the sensitivity with which the performer builds each work.
Tickets and access for students
Tickets are available at Ticketib for 8 euros in advance and 10 euros at the box office.

The festival continues its commitment to bring live music to new audiences and offer quality proposals on the island.
Mar Sánchez’s trajectory: roots, technique and versatility
Originally from El Viso del Alcor (Seville), Mar Sánchez is a composer, guitarist, singer and bandleader. She was trained in Barcelona and graduated from the Conservatori Superior de Música del Liceu, in addition to further studies at the ESMUC, the Royal Welsh College of Music and the Taller de Músics.
His career spans a wide spectrum of styles: from rock and black music to classical, chamber and contemporary music. He has also composed works for flamenco, jazz, blues and academic music, and has worked with disciplines such as dance, interpretation and performance.
In 2024 she lived a decisive stage with a four-month stay in the United States, during which she was a special guest of the Cuban band Cimafunk and participated in their tour. Subsequently, she recorded in Boston the compositions for her first solo guitar album, which will be released in early 2025.
New projects and international presence
For Sánchez, 2025 marks a period of personal and creative consolidation. In addition to her first solo tour, she has also recorded an album in March with her electric band, Mar Sánchez & Electric Band, and is currently working on new demos where she combines voice and electric guitar.
His international projection is extended with the processing of an artist visa to continue developing his career in the United States, while maintaining collaborations with figures such as Rosario La Tremendita, Raimundo Amador, Concha Buika and participates in festivals such as Glastonbury, Jazzaldia, Outside Lands or the Newport Jazz Fest, among others.
