Three Spanish Guitars concert

November 10, 2016 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Three Spanish Guitars

Three Spanish Guitars performed by Frank Wallace
is a vibrant and sensual experience of rare guitars in the hands of a master; with music of Sor, Aguado, Tárrega, de Falla, Turina, Mompou and Wallace.

It is extraordinary to hear a powerful and refined performer playing on exceptional historical instruments he knows intimately. Frank Wallace, a prolific composer of solos, chamber music and song, here shows that “…he can match the musicality of any player out there…virtuosic but always in a musically convincing way.” [This is Classical Guitar]. Three exquisite historical guitars from Wallace’s personal collection are featured in music appropriate for each: Sor, Aguado, Tárrega, de Falla, Turina and Mompou. Wallace has played these instruments by Manuel Gutierrez, Sevilla, 1854; Manuel Ramirez, Madrid, c. 1910; and Ignacio Fleta, Barcelona, 1964 for over 20 years on his most popular recordings on the Gyre label. Known for his “elegant virtuosity” (Classics Today), Frank Wallace tours internationally as a soloist and with mezzo-soprano Nancy Knowles and records for Gyre.
