Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - A few times each winter, Diego Mondragon flies down from San Diego and wows audiences in Puerto Vallarta with his world class violin playing. This isn't "high brow" music, which I'm sure he can expertly play, but rather music that pours out of his fiery, Latin soul. Diego gives a pulsating, non-stop, thrilling performance each time he picks up his violin and Puerto Vallarta comes out in big numbers each time he schedules a show here.

Diego Mondragon loves his audience and connects so well with them through his music and lively personality. He doesn't passively stand on stage playing, but confidently moves, dances and floats through the audience. Each performance is a personal gift to his fans and he always flashes that trademark smile that touches our souls!

Mondragon has performed across the globe, playing for presidents and in choice venues world wide. Born in Mexico City and raised in California, he has a deep respect and appreciation for his Mexican, French and Spanish heritage, which comes out in his musical style and expertise.

Diego played his first solo violin concerto at age 10 and eventually became the first chair in San Diego's South Bay Youth Orchestra. At 15, he received a full scholarship to the Royal British Conservatory in England. He credits Herb Albert, Jean-luc Ponty, Joe Venuti, Stephen Grappel and Didier Lockwood as his early jazz influences.

Truly a renaissance man, Diego Mondragon has studied psychology, music and many other subjects. Along with his busy performance schedule, he operates Amadeus Productions, a musical entertainment company. He has a zest and passion for life that he exudes, whether he's speaking or playing music.

A truly unique performer, with the training, experience and soul of a master musician, Diego Mondragon is an extraordinary talent. When he smiles, he lifts the spirit and when he plays he captures the soul! Don't miss Diego Mondragon's two night limited engagement in Puerto Vallarta on March 26 & 27 at 8 pm.

Joining Diego Mondragon as guest entertainers for this event are Jose Rosales on percussion and Nandini Santallian with extraordinary Arabian style dancing. Nandini is a world class dancer who has won awards in Mexico, Egypt and the United States for her amazing performances.
