Dear Colleague,
Calling all guitarists in the Brighton Centre group! We are pleased to be hosting an event for ensembles and soloists of all ages. There will be opportunities for workshop sessions and solo masterclasses under the guidance of the renowned English guitarist and composer Vincent Lindsey-Clark. It promises a stimulating afternoon for both performers and audience.
Vincent is well known for his compositions for the instrument written for both students and professionals. They are used extensively by major exam boards and performed all round the world. In 2003 he was asked to compose a piece for 100 young guitarists, for a Gala concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London and in 2009 he was commissioned to write the set pieces for the Beatty Guitar Competition in Washington DC. As a performer he made his London debut at the Wigmore Hall and has since appeared at the major London venues. He has travelled extensively both as tutor and performer with visits to Venezuela, New York, the Hong Kong Guitar Festival, the Sydney Guitar Summer School, and the Taranaki Guitar Summer School in New Zealand. Vincent’s teaching positions include Southampton University, London’s Centre for Young Musicians and Eton College.
Workshops/Masterclasses such as these offer a chance for aspiring guitarists to improve their skills and confidence in performance. We invite all levels to come along. You will find a form attached for you to give your pupils’ details and choice of music. Vincent will work with 3 or 4 ensembles and a similar number of soloists. The committee will select performers to give a balanced programme. To allow time to devise the sessions and organise certificates, which every participant will receive, please respond by 11 May.
