About The Event
’s impassioned Quartet is his emotional elegy for his sister Fanny’s death. ’s “Fandango” Quintet closes with the lively Spanish dance! Shibe’s solos are gems: a dance from an opera; ’s tribute to Debussy; ’s hauntingly beautiful Sarabande. Meeting Segovia inspired to write nearly 100 works for guitar.MendelssohnBoccheriniAdèsdeFallaPoulencCastelnuovo-Tedesco
