I will try to be of service to the young and gifted artists out there plus some of the wealth of experiences I have had since my appearance on the New York Guitar Scene since 1962 here in New York. As I stated a couple of posts ago, since turning 63 this month, I will take the next two years off from being in every crack and crevice of the New York City Classical/Jazz Guitar scene to concentrate on my own Playing and several outstanding Guitar projects. I must give you a heads up later on about all the great Guitar action: Tomorrow RUPERT BOYD at 2:30 at the Met of Art, Thursday the brilliant and dazzling JASON VIEAUX will be lecturing at the New York City Classical Guitar Society and Friday will give his usual superlative performance at the International Guitar Series sponsored by the Guitar Society and on Saturday in New Jersey there will be a wonderful Guitar Festival at The William Patterson University in New Jersey which will feature the young legendary Phenomenal Peruvian Titan JORGE CABALLERRO in Concert! This great artist must be experienced because he, at his young age is a great one in THE HISTORY OF MUSIC BARING INSTRUMENT DESIGNATION!!! Also the unusual Solo JAZZ Guitar Artistry of the fantastic musical genius JOHN STOWELL!! This artist has his own way of looking at the Guitar that will also astound you in his great creativity. His great teaching video is online at You Tube and you will learn some truly spectacular techniques with him. I HEARTILY Recommend you view the great performances of JORGE CABALLERRO on You Tube! He will knock you off your feet with his other worldly performances especially his performance of the PICTURES at An EXHIBITION ! I have followed this legendary artist since his days at The Manhattan School of Music where he stunned The Assad Brothers in their Masterclass with an impeccable performance of a work by Bach. JORGE continues to stun all who attends his performances with the most outstanding interpretations of all he plays. Count this young man with the greats already in the vanguard of Music History. I know my Guitar Artists and this man is a M O N S T E R up there with BREAM,WILLIAMS,SEGOVIA and any other of the greats of our beloved instrument! So- hopefully you will get to spend a day at William Patterson this Saturday for the mere $20 bucks.
