Martha Masters is a concert guitarist, full time teacher and President of the Guitar Foundation of America. Being in charge of the largest guitar convention in the world is challenging enough, but what does one do when a global pandemic hits just three months before the opening concert? I wanted to find out and got to have a great, one hour conversation with Martha about that, the American guitar scene and many other interesting things.
French guitarist Thibaut Garcia won the GFA competition at the age of 21 and has since been stunning audiences with his effortless virtuosity and musicianship. In this episode we talk performance, teaching, recording and practicing to become the best.
Michael Gee is one of the great contemporary classical guitar makers, and in this conversation, that was recorded back in 2019 during the Norwegian Guitar Festival, we talk about how he got started as a luthier, what his philosophy on guitar making is and why he keeps coming back to the festival year after year.
In this episode of Crossing Strings, I talk to the great guitarist Pablo Márquez. We talk about teaching remotely, recording for the record label ECM, and we dig deep into some of his recording of Zad Moltaka and Luciano Berio.
In this second episode of Crossing Strings, I talk to Fabio Zanon. He is undoubtedly one of the great guitarists of his generation, and he is also extremely knowledgeable of music and generous with his time. We talk about his career and recordings, Brazilian music and what live music might be like after the COVID 19 pandemic.
In this first episode of Crossing Strings, we meet the young classical guitarist Campbell Diamond. Campbell is from Australia and in 2019 he was one of the featured artists at the Norwegian Guitar Festival. During this interview we talk about his background, practising and what his plans for the future are.
