A Classical Guitar Celebration at Center Stage Theater

Giacomo Fiore, Andre Feriante and Michael Chapdelaine will present a classical and contemporary repertoire and original pieces including music by Santa Barbara and other California-based composers. Presented informally in the round, trading stories and humor, the evening will be a delightful treat for those who love the harmonies of the classical guitar.

Giacomo Fiore is an Italian-born guitarist and musicologist livng in San Francisco and teaching at the San Francisco Conservatory, the University of San Francisco, and UC Santa Cruz.

Segovia-trained and award winning guitarist/composer Andre Feriante has introduced a sensual and contemporary sound to an otherwise traditional genre. His creative blend of classical, flamenco and Brazilian styles speaks to people from all walks of life.

Michael Chapdelaine is the only guitarist ever to win First Prize in the world’s top competitions in both the Classical and Fingerstyle genres; the Guitar Foundation of America International Classical Guitar Competition and the National Fingerstyle Championships.
