Dear Subscriber,
A lot has happened in the last couple months, and we hope you’ve all been staying safe and healthy. While we were saddened to have had to cancel our March and April concerts with Jordan Dodson and Raphaël Feuillâtre (please consider donating to our artist relief campaign on GoFundMe), we have rallied and are excited to be able to bring to you our very first online concert via Facebook Premiere, our 8th Annual WCGS Members Concert.
Every year, our Members Concert is a celebration of the classical guitar and the wonderful community we’ve formed together. This year, we invite you to celebrate with us from the comfort and safety of your own home. Join us online for our first ever streaming concert Saturday, May 23rd at 7:30 pm.
This streaming concert has been compiled with love from numerous submissions volunteered by professional and amateur musicians of the Wilmington Classical Guitar Society. Featured performers include Award-Winning guitarist Brendan Evans, half of the award-winning Dulcet Guitar Duo Caroline Kubach, WCGS President & Artistic Director Matthew Lavanish, and WCGS members Bill Simmons, Seth Hammonds (debut), Ralph Dominica, Brian Bard, Simon Varley, Scott Kuykendall, Dave Bozenhard, and John Nguyen.
The concert will stream from our Facebook page at https://facebook.com/wilmingtonguitar. You can join the premiere from there at concert time. Please note, you do not need a Facebook account to view the concert. No log in is necessary.
All the performers will be online in the chat Saturday to celebrate with you. I hope you’ll join us!
Hope to see you there!
Best wishes,
Matthew Lavanish
