Event information
Be transported by the extraordinary sounds of the guitar with an evening of unique arrangements of timeless classical works, performed by celebrated alumni from Guildhall School.
The programme has been carefully curated to highlight the guitar’s expressive range, offering a fresh perspective on these well-known works: from the richness of Scarlatti’s Sonatas to the impressionistic textures of Debussy's Arabesques, and the dramatic flair of two much-loved opera overtures reimagined for guitar quartet.
