Duo Destino – Flamenco Fusion

About

Date: 4th July 2026

Venue: Waterperry Amphitheatre

Time: 5:30-7:30pm

Virtuoso guitarists Ben Bruant and Will Cashel – together known as Duo Destino – bring their exhilarating blend of flamenco passion and familiar melodies reimagined in surprising ways to Waterperry Gardens for the very first time.

Since meeting at the Royal Academy of Music in London in 2011, Ben (from Le Havre, trained at the Conservatoire National de Paris) and Will (from Bath, a Purcell School scholar and graduate of the Royal Northern College of Music) have captivated audiences across Europe with dazzling fingerwork, rhythmic percussive techniques, and infectious energy.

With seven albums, two EPs, and their acclaimed original release Destino (2023) followed by Destino – Live (2024), the duo have performed for royalty, at Glastonbury, the Liverpool Philharmonic, the Edinburgh Fringe, Goodwood, and even the F1 Grand Prix. Their music has been featured on BBC Radio 2, Scala Radio, and they are the resident band on Susannah Constantine's My Wardrobe Malfunction podcast.

During the pandemic, Duo Destino won national recognition with their heartfelt "Gigs in Your Garden" – 70 free concerts performed for NHS and frontline workers, celebrated on BBC Breakfast, Sky News, and in the national press.

Now, by popular demand, they bring their Flamenco Fusion to Waterperry Gardens. Expect bold, Latin‑inspired compositions alongside inventive arrangements of a wide‑ranging repertoire — from classical masters like Vivaldi, to pop and rock icons such as Daft Punk and Dire Straits, and timeless favourites from the Rolling Stones and The Gypsy Kings. Their sound is so rich and layered, you'll swear there are more than two musicians on stage.

Don't miss this unforgettable evening of music, passion, and artistry.

Once seen, never forgotten.
