Javier Molina / Strumming for Classical Guitarists

Luis Regidor / The Guitar and the Song

Project of the José Tomás Villa de Petrer International Guitar Festival that began in 2012 with Maestro Leo Brouwer in his tribute and delivery of the José Tomás Honorary Guitarist Award. The orchestra was directed during several editions by the director Pedro Chamorro. It has also been directed by artists such as Jorge Cardoso, Francisco Albert Ricote or Arnaud Dumond. 2019 was the year of its last call, after the pandemic, we relaunched this flagship project of the Guitar festival, with the idea that the students enrolled in the courses live the experience of living together sharing music with great artists. On this occasion, it will be Aniello Desiderio who will participate as solo guitarist. Miguel García Ferrer, an expert conductor of different chamber ensembles, with whom we were able to count for the “Twenty-five years together” orchestra, made up of great guitarists for the 25th anniversary, who was in charge of directing this fantastic concert with the work The Walls of the composer Sergio Assad. Rehearsals will be on the 18th, 19th and 20th and the concert on Thursday 20th at 20:30 at the Teatro Cervantes. The concert will be completed by the Duo Aniello Desiderio – Zoran Dukic. Sheet music will be sent in advance. Sign up if you want to participate!
