notes
Maestro Cordero was a child prodigy when he began studying the guitar at age eight in his native Puerto Rico. He continued his classical guitar studies in Spain under the tutelage of Maestro Miguel Rubio, a distinguished disciple of Andrés Segovia. He also studied flamenco guitar with Andalucia's foremost virtuoso: the late Manuel Cano. Besides performing in Puerto Rico on a regular basis, he has played concerts in Argentina, Spain, Switzerland, Portugal, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Aruba and St. Croix. He has also performed in various cities in the U.S.A., including Cleveland, Atlanta, Lorain, Boca Ratón, St. Louis, the Oberlin Conservatory, Temple U. (Phila.), Greenville College (Ill.), and the Guitar Foundation of America festivals held at the Univ. of Akron and the Buffalo Campus of SUNY. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Pablo Casals Music Festival, and the Guitar Foundation of America. He is a former professor of Law and Economics at the University of Puerto Rico, and a former member of the House of Representatives of Puerto Rico.
