Oaxaca-born guitarist and composer Gil Gutiérrez has made his home in San Miguel de Allende for many years. His music and playing have attracted attention from North and South America to Europe through his many CD’s, film scores, and concert appearances. After studying classical guitar at the Benito Juárez Autonomous University in Oaxaca with teachers José Benitez from Peru and Jose Saldana from Mexico, Mr. Gutiérrez’ interests spread to many musical genres, such as jazz, flamenco and son cubano and has performed internationally including Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center and Mexicio's Palacio de Bellas Artes.  Gil and the trio were featured in the 2021 PBS Masterworks documentary "Doc Severinsen - Never Too Late" also featuring Questlove, Arturo Sandoval and Chris Botti.
