Dear Subscriber,
Please join us on Saturday, June 12th ONLINE on Facebook for our 9th Annual WCGS Members Concert, an evening of beautiful classical guitar music, featuring the talents of professional and amateur guitarists from the Wilmington Classical Guitar Society. While the current pandemic is keeping us from congregating, it’s not keeping us from making music. I hope you will join us for our second virtual Members Concert.
The concert will stream from our Facebook page at https://facebook.com/wilmingtonguitar. No Facebook account is necessary to view the performance. You can join the premiere from our Facebook page at concert time, and we’ll also share a direct link to the premiere within the next few days.
Recently recorded LIVE at Presbyterian Church of the Covenant, one musician at a time on state-of-the-art equipment, this concert will feature performances by the Philadelphia Guitar Quartet (Alan Ens, Brendan Evans, Matthew Lavanish (WCGS President), and Phil Smith), the Dulcet Guitar Duo (Caroline Kubach and Alex Pollock), and WCGS members Bill Simmons, Seth Hammonds, Robert Guerrero (debut), Ralph Dominica, Simon Varley, Graham Williamson, and John Nguyen.
Tentative program includes works by Beethoven, Dowland, York, Cottin, Ferrer, Gervaise, Cohen, Pujol, Sagreras, Sinesi, Boccherini, Sor, Lauro, Tarrega, Cardoso, and Aguado, and several traditional folk songs.
All the performers will be online in the chat Saturday to celebrate with you. I hope you’ll join us, and look forward to joining us again in person starting in October 2021!
This program is supported, in part, by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division promotes Delaware arts events on DelawareScene.com.
Hope to see you there!
Best wishes,
Matthew Lavanish
