Tuesdays @ Monk Space PRESENTS
MicroGuitar Chamber Music
In collaboration with MicroFest
Exquisite chamber music for microtuned & refretted guitars including a new song cycle on texts of Carl Sandburg, and new music for retuned guitar duo: “The fascinating result has the effect of creating a jumbo classical guitar with expanded tonal vocabulary. The haunting and slightly disorienting sound disrupts and engages the open ear.” – LA Times
