Composer’s Voice – 7th Annual Guitar Concert
The Composer’s Voice Concert Series will present its 7th Annual Guitar Concert on May 31st at 1:00 pm at Jan Hus Church in New York, NY. The free concert will feature the UK Guitar Quartet performing works by Juan Trigos, Nathan R. Johnson, Blair Whittington, Thomas Schuttenhelm, Kevin Scott, Justin Breame, Juan Maria Solare, and Juan Calderon.
The UK Guitar Quartet was formed for the express purpose of premiering Juan Trigos’ 25-minute, genre expanding Guitar Quartet (2009), which was commissioned by the Tantalus Quartet but left un-premiered. A technically, musically, and rhythmically challenging masterpiece, the work redefines the guitar quartet with intricately interwoven rhythmic layers with four equally prominent parts. The UK Guitar Quartet is led by University of Kentucky guitar professor Dieter Hennings Yeomans, and joined by Dr. Jay Sorce, Andrew Rhinehart, and Jeremy Bass.
