Manuel Morao: Yo nunca a mi ley falté

Under the title Manuel Morao. “Yo nunca a mi ley falté” (“I Never Betrayed My Principles”), Knobloch Strings
presents a new edition of the book written by Juan Manuel Suárez Japón, chronicling the life and work of the great guitarist from Jerez, Manuel Morao.

In 2014, the Provincial Council of Cádiz published Sinelo Calorró. “Conversaciones con Manuel Morao” (“Conversations with Manuel Morao”). Despite its warm reception, the book quickly sold out, and the reprints requested by readers never came to fruition. This new edition was born from that demand. While based on the original publication, it introduces several changes, reducing the number of footnotes and placing greater emphasis on Manuel Morao’s own testimony.

With this project, Knobloch Strings aims to preserve the legacy of one of the great masters of flamenco guitar and to share his story with a broader audience through this book.
