# Enrique Llácer Soler

Enrique Llácer Soler (Alcoy, 20 June 1934), also known as Regolí, is a Spanish jazz and classical percussionist and composer.

He started his jazz career in 1952 in Barcelona's Jam Sessions while expanding his Valencia and Madrid conservatories studies under Kenny Clarke in Paris and Philly Joe Jones in New York. In 1966 he wrote a drum set method, La batería: técnica, independencia y ritmo. In 1972 he became the Spanish National Orchestra percussion soloist and he subsequently started teaching percussion in the Madrid Royal Conservatory. From then on he focused in the classical side of his career as both performer and composer, but he still was active in the Spanish jazz scene through the 1980s in bands such as Canal Street Jazz Band.

In 2015 he received the Gold Medal of Merit in the Fine Arts.
