The Write, Time of classical music & passion - Virginia Luque, by LETEL.

Virginia Luque, a famous guitarist who plays classical and flamenco music in a Spanish romantic style, has become an admirer of LETEL’s exclusive custom collection. 

Ms. Luque, who has been awarded First Prize at several international competitions, including the “Manuel de Falla” competition for classical guitar in Granada, Spain, has an incredible passion for music that developed at an early age out of her genuine interest in letters and the unique sounds that they impart. To her, music is a powerful instrument of communication, which, when used wisely, can communicate splendid messages to the masses.

She has dedicated most of her life to bringing joy to other people’s lives through her breathtaking performances, which, alongside having earned her one of the highest rankings among contemporary guitarists, have also granted her the opportunity to embrace her love for self-expression. 

Recently, she has met with the founders of Uber digital luxury, who are Partners at LETEL and responsible for Brand management. Sharing a similar vision of reaching out to people by offering them an exclusive luxury that not only brings joy to their lives, but also grants them a chance to more uniquely express themselves. Both Virginia and LETEL espouse unique creativity in the world of luxury.

Virginia’s distinguished and inspiring journey, which eventually led her to become an endorser of LETEL’s exclusive custom collection. She began at an early age at four, she was presented with her first guitar, which she examined and attempted to play without any formal instruction. At age seven, after having received a lot of formal training, she performed her first concert. It was both a success and a transitional life experience. 

After hearing her play, legendary Spanish guitarist, Andres Segovia, invited her to study guitar privately with him. The sound of music from her guitar, and music in general, brought her boundless joy, which motivated her to continue to develop her distinctive and admired skill well into her adulthood. 

With continued practice, determination, and perseverance, she eventually earned a Master’s degree in music at an institute in Spain, and a few years later, she decided to move to America where she then earned her second Master’s degree in music, this time from the Julliard School in New York City. 

Ms. Luque’s concerto performances have included the Concierto de Aranjuez with the New York Virtuosi Orchestra, the Hartford Symphony Orchestra, the North Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, Riverside Symphony, the Seoul Symphony Orchestra, the Izmir Symphony Orchestra, Antalya Symphony Orchestra and she has premiered her own concerto with the Alexandria Symphony


Her recitals have included Carnegie Hall, Town Hall, The Metropolitan Opera House, The Frick Collection in New York City, and numerous concert halls throughout the United States. She was also invited by Christopher Parkening to do a special guest recital at the Christopher Parkening International Master Class at Montana State University.


LETEL is proud to be a part of such an inspiring individual’s journey, and is proud to present such a dedicated and exceptionally talented musician partnering for some exceptional timepieces from the exclusive custom collection.
